Scheme analysis
DSP Black Rock Top 100 Equity Fund has consistently shown a superior performance since its inception in March 2003, giving nearly 29% (compounded annual growth rate [CAGR]) returns to the investors outperforming both the category peers and the benchmark index, BSE 100, which managed to post 11.2% and 21.6% returns respectively. Given the current turbulent market conditions where the category average has lost about 6% over the past one year and the benchmark index has declined by about 9%, the fund has shown a phenomenal ability to contain its losses to just 1.3% during the same period. Further, over a three-year period, the fund has given exceptional returns of 21% (CAGR) as against 18.2% and 17.7% by the category average and the benchmark index respectively. The portfolio is actively managed and well diversified with over 35 scrips wherein the top ten stocks form 52% of the portfolio. The fund has invested 53% of its funds in the banking sector followed by non-banking financial institutions and housing finance companies with 11% and 3% allocation respectively.
