Fund Analysis
Though the name of fund is smaller companies, its considerable portion is in midcap. It generates satisfactory returns during good times and performs moderately during hostile ones. The superior performance has led to a tremendous increase in the AUM size which might prove to be a concern. But the Management of Franklin has a proven solid track record in managing risk while delivering returns. The trust of AMC in its management and investment mandate is visible by its decision to allow for fresh investments in the fund even with this huge AUM unlike few others in the category.
