NFO Alert: Introducing Bajaj Finserv Small Cap Fund
Pune, Maharashtra, India (NewsVoir) Risk is often misunderstood as something to be avoided, but in investing, it's the fuel that can power long-term returns. It's also important to recognize that risk isn't defined by size – sometimes, even large, familiar companies can fail due to issues like poor governance or excessive debt. Long-term outperformance doesn't come from size alone, but from quality, strong governance, and sustainable growth. The key is not to avoid risk, but to understand it, manage it, and potentially use it to your advantage. This is especially true in the small cap space, which tends to be highly volatile. But in investing, higher risk usually means higher potential returns. To tap into the potential of small caps while mitigating risk through research-backed stock selection, the Bajaj Finserv AMC announces the launch of Bajaj Finserv Small Cap Fund with a 3-in-1 advantage: Quality – companies with distinct competitive advantage, Growth – companies with high scalability potential, and Value – companies that are trading at below their intrinsic value. The New Fund Offer period begins on June 27, 2025 and is on till July 11, 2025. Units will be available at a offer price of Rs. 10 during the NFO. What are small cap funds? Small cap companies are businesses ranked 251st and beyond on the basis of market capitalisation on the stock exchange as per SEBI guidelines. They often operate in emerging sectors and may offer higher growth potential over the long term. For instance, in the past half-a-decade, small caps have outpaced large and mid-caps in profit contribution, growing up to 2.5X faster. Source: Ace Equity, Data as on Dec 31, 2024 Alongside this, small cap funds offer a broader diversification, spanning across sectors, themes and offering exposure to the companies powering India's growth story. Source: BSE, Data as on May 31, 2025 Why invest in small caps now? The FY25 market correction has brought down small cap prices, but the fundamentals of several companies remain strong, creating a suitable entry point. Profit growth and return ratios continue to be healthy, highlighting the strength of earnings potential. Source: Ace Equity Many small caps are leading quietly in niche markets, driving innovation and expansion. This makes it a suitable time to make an entry into the small caps market. Why Bajaj Finserv Small Cap Fund? • Three-pronged alpha strategy: A balanced blend of Growth, Quality, and Value styles. • Differentiated investment process: The proprietary INQUBE framework leverages top-down megatrends, bottom-up stock selection, and behavioural insights. • Investment expertise: Bajaj Finserv AMC has a seasoned investment team with deep multi-sector expertise. The company currently has 78 unique small cap holdings across existing funds. The five pillars of Bajaj Finserv Small Cap Fund • Quality: The fund will focus on companies with sound fundamentals, consistent earnings performance, and sustainable competitive advantages. • Growth: Portfolio will comprise businesses with a long-term growth vision, scalable models, and the potential to sustain performance over time. • Undervalued opportunities: The fund identifies stocks trading below their intrinsic value, often strong companies facing temporary mispricing or undergoing business turnarounds. • Leadership: The fund backs emerging category leaders that dominate niche segments and hold high market share in specific micro-markets. • Governance: The portfolio prioritises companies with transparent business practices, aligned promoter interests, and experienced, credible management teams.

Jeff McCloy, former Newcastle Lord Mayor and influential businessman, passes away at 75
Jeff McCloy , former Newcastle Lord Mayor and influential businessman, has passed away after battling with motor neurone disease (MND). He lost his battle with MND, which was diagnosed about 12 months ago, on Friday (June 27, 2025). He ended his life with voluntary assisted dying (VAD), according to ABC News. He only stood down as chair of the family business in January 2025 to focus on his health. Following McCloy's death, the City of Newcastle said in a statement that he will be remembered as a prominent business leader and icon of the Hunter's development and construction industries, whose life's work made a significant contribution to the city's growth and infrastructure. McCloy grew up in Belmont. He studied at the University of Newcastle (UoN), where he earned a degree in civil engineering. In the 1970s he joined the Belmont-based construction company DF McCloy, founded by his father, Don McCloy. Later he took over the reins of the company in the mid-80s. He served as Newcastle lord mayor between 2012 and 2014. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo Besides being a businessman, McCloy was also a renowned philanthropist who was dedicated to providing support to charitable organisations, education and welfare groups, medical research, and sports teams and clubs, while his passion for public art enriched communities across the region, according to NewCastle Weekly. He received the City of Newcastle Medal in 2009 for highly distinguished service to the city and community. During his two-year stint as Lord Mayor, he campaigned for the removal of the heavy rail line through the city centre and Newcastle's urban renewal. He was known for being an outspoken advocate for bringing development and prosperity to the CBD, too. Live Events Ross Kerridge, current Lord Mayor, paid tribute to McCloy for his contribution. 'Jeff was one of the region's most successful businesspeople of recent years,' he said. 'His drive, his can-do attitude, and his passion for the community were all hallmarks of his success. A particular achievement was his leadership and resolve that enabled his team to finish construction of the John Hunter Hospital well ahead of schedule after the 1989 earthquake. This was crucial to Newcastle's recovery and reconstruction. His enthusiasm for his hometown was demonstrated by his widespread involvement in many community matters, including, notably, being the Lord Mayor,' he said. 'Less well-known is that he was a significant donor to various local charities and to public art and sculpture. He also quietly and discreetly helped out many Novocastrians in personal difficulties. Like all big achievers, he had his critics, but no one can deny his passion and positive commitment to the community,' he further stated.

ICICI stake watch: ICICI Bank moves to retain majority in AMC, ADR rules set for tweak
ICICI Bank has approved plans to raise its stake in ICICI Prudential Asset Management Company by up to 2 per cent, as part of efforts to retain majority control ahead of a potential dilution due to stock-based compensation at the fund house. In a regulatory filing on Friday, the bank said its board has cleared the proposal to purchase up to 2 per cent additional shareholding in the asset management firm, PTI reported. 'This purchase will primarily be towards maintaining the bank's majority shareholding in the event of grant of stock-based compensation by the company,' it said. The move will be subject to requisite regulatory approvals, the bank added. ICICI Bank currently holds a 51 per cent stake in the AMC, while the remaining 49 per cent is owned by its joint venture partner, UK-based Prudential PLC. In February this year, the bank had disclosed its intention to retain majority control in the AMC even as Prudential moves ahead with a planned listing and partial stake sale in the fund house. ICICI Prudential AMC posted a net profit of Rs 1,815 crore in FY24, up from Rs 1,508 crore in the previous year. In another key decision, the ICICI Bank board also approved an amendment to the bank's ADR Deposit Agreement to grant voting rights on deposited securities to registered American Depository Shares (ADS) holders, subject to RBI approval. 'The voting rights by the registered ADS holder would be subject to it demonstrating that its holdings are in conformity with Section 12B of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 read with applicable Master Direction & Guidelines, as amended from time to time,' the filing said.
