SBI EDGE FUND

It is a quasi-one year old fund from SBI Funds Management. It was a merger of two old schemes of the mutual fund, SBI Magnum Income Plus Fund-Savings Plan and SBI Magnum NRI Investment Fund-Flexi Asset Plan, which took effect from October 5, 2012. The former was a pure debt scheme, while the latter was a hybrid equity-debt fund with a wide handle to deploy a major portion of corpus either in equity or debt at any time and interchange the equity-debt exposures at the opinion of the fund manager.


CURRENT AVATAAR & OBJECTIVE:

 

Since the merger a year ago, SBI EDGE Fund (SEF) has been a hybrid equity-debt-gold fund. In the 12 months from October 2012 to September 2013, SEF's equity exposure has ranged in a narrow range from 30.80 per cent to 33.70 per cent, the debt exposure has been in a 34.20-40.70 per cent range, while the gold ETF investment has been in a narrow 27.70-33.30 per cent range. The ob jective of SEF is to offer investors multi-asset di versification in a single scheme where three asset gold classes of equity, debt and are given more or less equal exposure.

ASSET ALLOCATION & BENCHMARK:

Asset al location percentage range are 20-45 for equi ties, 20-60 for debt and money market instruments and 20-45 for gold ETF.


SEF benchmarks itself to Sensex (33 per cent), Crisil Composite Bond Fund Index (33 per cent) and price of gold (33 per cent).


EXPENSE RATIO:

Annual recurring expenses, as per available Capitaline NAV data, in SEF between February and July averaged 1.75 per cent.


SEF has been consistent in the nearequal exposures it gives to the three asset classes. But within an asset class, particularly equity and debt, the diversification intensity does not live to a demanding investor's intensification. For instance, the latest equity exposure of SEF was 33.70 per cent, but the top 10 equity holdings by themselves made up for 23.50 per cent of the scheme corpus, meaning 70 per cent of equity exposure was concentrated in the top 10 stocks. If an investor were to split her investible amount equally and invest separately in equity, debt and gold ETF schemes she would expect her equity scheme not to a top 10 concentration of more than 45 per cent.

Further, 71.40 per cent of SEF's debt exposure in September lay in government securities with much of the balance being in money market instruments. It is too early to judge SEF on performance as one year is too short a period to compare it with similar other hybrids.

Star Medi Classic

Objective

An online health insurance policy which aims to protect insured member(s) from expenses incurred on treatment taken as an inpatient along with several other benefits available for extra price.

 

Suited for

Anyone between 5 and 80 years (65 years for a Rs 10 lakh cover) is eligible to buy this policy on individual or floater basis.

 

What does it do?

This policy can be bought for an individual, a family floater or a group. Group policy can avail a discount on premium if bought for more than 500 persons. It provides for hospitalisation expenses with sub-limits on room rent and boarding, pre and post hospitalisation expenses and ambulance charges.
Policyholder can widen the cover by opting for other benefits by paying extra premium. Optional benefits include daily cash benefit, patient care for persons above 65 years and newborn baby cover. This policy also covers non-allopathic treatment.

 

Pros

It covers non-allopathic treatment as well.
The policy can provide cover up to Rs 10 lakh.
This policy allows a 5 per cent discount if it's purchased online.
It provides a no-claim discount for every claim-free year.
Group policies avail a discount on premium.
Premium paid towards this policy can be availed as deduction under section 80D of IT Act.

 

Cons

Room rent and boarding charges are capped.
Family floater policy is available for a sum insured up to Rs 3 lakh only.

 

Our View

This is a good policy that also covers non-allopathic treatment. Policyholders can customise the policy by adding supplementary benefits. For instance, patient care benefit pays a daily cash amount for nursing charges, which is useful.The only drawback is the capping on room rent and boarding. Even though it does not offer a lifelong policy renewal, 80 years is a long enough tenure
