What is this episode about?
Recently, SEBI approved the launch of a new asset class. In this 22nd episode of the Prime Podcast, Aarati Krishnan breaks down all that you need to know about this new asset class.
She first speaks about what exactly it is and why she prefers to refer to it as a new product class instead and how it is different from other avenues available to investors today. This leads her to what could be the reasons that prompted SEBI to introduce this new product class. Next she covers the key features of this new product class and the terms and conditions associated with it including where to buy it from, structure and taxation.
She also talks about the two examples that SEBI has covered with regard to this new product class – long short funds and inverse ETFs. She then delves into the other possibilities that this new product class opens and if they are allowed to take on derivative exposure and leverage.
Finally and most importantly, should you go for it? Aarati Krishnan gives you the PrimeInvestor house view in the podcast!

Thank you. Hoping to get more info. as the decision on this product category progresses.
There’s one other feature (constraint?) I thought SEBI is allowing. Redemption does not have to be daily (or continuously like in MF).
Your thoughts on the initial place to dabble – i.e. concentrated portfolio is interesting.
What’s needed is clarity on a few things:
– How the TER is going to work?
-Liquidity (especially if some of them are going to constrain redemption for a longer duration)
-Absolute clarity on the tax liability.
– Will AMC keep the multiple product offering in this new category clean and simple or Will their offer document allow anything/ everything.
– Also if Direct option is available? How TER for this will vary from Regular.
– Will it be simple like using MFU to transact or something different?
Informative episode, crisply covering the key features of new Product class.
Long short, Inverse ETF, Derivative strategy … higher exposure in comparison to MF’s… makes it look exciting prospect for investors!!!
Thank you
