Canara Robeco MF launches BAF

Canara Robeco Mutual Fund on Thursday announced the launch of its balanced advantage fund (BAF). The hybrid offering will dynamically adjust the equity and debt allocations based on a three-factor asset allocation model, the fund house said, adding that the three factors will be trailing price-to-book ratio, equity risk premium and forward price-to-earnings ratio.

"The gross allocation of the fund will be 65 per cent or more towards equities, which will ensure equity taxation for investors. Rest will be invested in debt and money market instruments," the fund house said. The scheme will use a top-down approach for sector allocation and bottom-up selection for stocks, which will be a blend of compounders and cyclicals.
