UTI Wealth Builder Fund-Series II is an open ended equity oriented scheme. The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing predominantly in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity related instruments alongwith investments in Gold ETFs and Debt and Money Market instruments.

Jaideep Bhattacharya, Chief Marketing Officer, UTI AMC said, “UTI Wealth Builder Fund-Series II is the First of its Kind in the mutual fund industry to offer an asset allocation which combines traditional as well as non traditional asset class i.e. Equity and Gold. It is important to have an alternative asset in one’s portfolio and to build a portfolio around assets that have low correlation. Gold has proved to be “counter cyclical” or low correlated asset class as compared to equity investments and has generally been considered as a safe haven during times of economic upheavals and volatile equity markets.”

“Also first time Investors will have the convenience of investing through SIP that will have exposure to Gold ETF” he added.

Harsha Upadhyaya, Fund Manager of the scheme said, “The scheme aims to build and maintain a diversified portfolio of equity stocks that has potential to appreciate in the long run. The scheme will take exposure across capitalisations with a tilt towards large caps and will also use derivatives to hedge and manage volatility. The investment in Gold ETFs will diversify portfolio risk and reduce overall volatility of returns.”
