Investment Philosophy
Motilal Oswal Focussed Midcap Strategy seeks to invest in a concentrated portfolio of their top mid-cap ideas (15-20 stocks) (companies ranked 101-400 in market capitalisation). The emphasis is on evolving business firms that can benefit from earnings growth and valuation re-rating. The mid-cap focus stems from the premise that most multi-baggers are found in the mid and small-cap space.
This fund has a clear investment philosophy focusing on long-term investments in high-quality firms that meet their QGLP investment framework. They have followed this strategy for over two decades, with little style drift.
Investment Methodology
The Motilal Oswal Focused Midcap Strategy aims to invest in a small number of their best mid-cap ideas (15–20 equities) (companies ranked 101-400 in market capitalization). The focus is on growing companies that stand to gain from valuation increases and earnings growth. The idea behind the mid-cap concentration is that small- and mid-cap companies tend to have the most multi-baggers.
With an emphasis on long-term investments in reputable companies that adhere to their QGLP investing framework, this fund has a distinct investment strategy. They have maintained this method for over 20 years with little change in aesthetics.
The Strategy Framework
- Quality of the Company and Quality of Management: Stable consumer-facing businesses with large business opportunities and long-term competitive advantages. Competent management runs businesses.
- Growth earnings: It is driven by volume growth, price growth, mix changes, and operational and financial leverage.
- Longevity (of Quality and Growth): Determined by the business’s long-term relevance, extending the period of competitive advantage, and maintaining growth momentum.
- Price: Reasonably priced concerning quality and growth prospects, with a high margin of safety.
This focused mid-cap fund strategy intends to Sit Tight once they have identified stocks that meet their stringent QGLP criteria. It follows a long-term buy-and-hold proceed in concentrated stock portfolios. The framework is based on the idea of identifying great businesses (defined as long-term quality and growth) and purchasing them at a reasonable price. This mid-cap fund guarantees that they only engage in high-quality businesses with appealing growth prospects by strictly adhering to the QGLP approach.
Portfolio Construction
- Strategy: Growth of 20%+ at the portfolio level, with a portfolio level ROE of 15%+.
- Reversion to mean: Invest in companies whose valuations have corrected in the last two years while maintaining their earnings profile.
- Sector: Commodities and global cyclical receive little or no allocation.
- Allocation: based on convictions about companies and not necessarily on price.
- Price movement-based action: Mismatches in price and timelines should result in folio action on both sides, i.e. selling and buying. Positions are regularly trimmed if price targets exceed timelines.
Portfolio Positioning
Manufacturing with an export focus – 26%
A significant increase in contract manufacturing, combined with Production Linked Incentives schemes, is focusing attention on this topic.
IT Services – 15%
Covid has played a critical role in reducing the five-year spend on digitisation to less than three years. Many companies across industries were forced to migrate and embrace digital operations, resulting in increased digitisation spending.
Infrastructure – 9%
Insurance should be observed as a multi-decadal growth story. For example, Max Financials is the fourth largest private life insurer and has the best-in-class matrix. They believe it is an attractively priced opportunity, given the overhang on Axis Bank and the collapse of the hold-co structure.
NBFC – 3%
The cost of capital is decreasing, asset quality is excellent, and companies are available at reasonable valuations.
Cyclical Recovery – 16%
A cyclical recovery bet and a proxy for infrastructure or real estate play.
