Kotak Launches Hybrid Fund to Boost Mid-Cap Growth
Imagine a fund that combines the safety of loans with the potential for growth from stocks.
That's what Kotak Alts is offering with its new fund, KYGF.
They plan to invest in businesses in India, both big and small, that are already making money.
The fund aims to protect investments by using safeguards like collateral.
The managers, who have a history of strong returns, will stick to what they know best.
This new fund allows Kotak Alts to expand their private credit strategy to domestic investors, and they're promising investors both a steady income and careful risk management.
Kotak Alts launched the Kotak Yield & Growth Fund (KYGF).
The fund combines private credit with potential equity gains.
KYGF targets India's mid- to large-cap businesses.
Focus is on cash-flow positive enterprises.
Kotak Alts aims for 18-20% returns, like previous global funds.
