Commenting on the launch, Mr A. Balasubramanian, MD &CEO, Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC Limited said: “Nifty Bank has outperformed and been a lead sector performer compared to broader indices across all time frames. NPAs seem to have bottomed out for the sector and profits are expected to rise as reflected in the earnings estimate of CY2019 and CY2020. The government too has taken multiple steps to inspire market confidence and stimulate growth by way of liquidity infusion, corporate tax cut, PSU bank consolidation and recapitalization. These measures augur well for the banking sector and its performance. Aditya Birla Sun Life Banking ETF is a great addition to our bouquet of ETF offerings which already has Nifty, Nifty Next 50, Sensex & Gold ETFs”.
“ETFs are the funds listed and traded on stock exchanges like shares. Due to the unique structure of ETFs, all types of investors, whether retail or institutional, long-term or short-term, can use it to their advantage. Investors can complement their core equity portfolio with this kind of a financial instrument”, added Mr. Balasubramanian.
The Banking sector has seen more consistency in terms of growth in spite of the slowdown in the recent past.Banking sector is the lifeline of any economy and is the lead indicator of the broader market and when earnings make a turnaround, historically banking is typically the first sector to rebound.
A popular investment instrument internationally, Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are gaining ground in India as they offer a basket of benefits while retaining the familiarity of mutual funds. ETFs are the funds listed and traded easily on stock exchanges like any other stock on the stock exchanges. Simple structure, higher liquidity and ease of transaction have led to their popularity.
The fund will have zero entry or exit load and the units of the scheme can be bought or sold from the exchanges on all trading days at prevailing listed price. The minimum application amount for this fund is Rs. 5,000/-, and in multiples of Rs 1,000/- thereafter, during the New Fund Offerperiod.
