A Negative Year Can Wipe Off Years Of Positive Return

-50%

Money saved in negative markets has a

disproportionate impact on Return on

Investment(ROI).

In this context, in the first scenario, an investor earns a yearly return of 40% for three consecutive years—a normal feat in a raging bull market. But, he

ends up with a loss of 50% in the fourth year. Such a scenario cannot be ruled out post a bull market. This loss of 50% in the 4th year brings down his

annualised return or CAGR to just 8.23% over 4 years. In the second scenario, the investor lowers his risk of loss. Thus, even though he earns just 30%

yearly in the first three years, the loss of 30% in the 4th year only partially erodes his overall CAGR, which is 11.36%

Decision making is the most important aspect

The above is only for illustration purpose. The actual results may vary.

Risk Control Measures

The word “risk” derives from the early Italian risicare, which means “to dare”. In this sense, risk is a choice rather

than a fate.

- Peter L. Bernstein, Against the Gods, The Remarkable Story of Risk.

RISK EVALUATION WHILE PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION

Qualitative Filters

•Management Track Record

•Moat in Business

Quantitative Filters

•Valuation: PE, PB, RoE, RoCE etc.

•Net Debt to EBITDA – Company’s

ability to decrease debt

•Market cap to sales, FCF to sales

•Cash Conversion Cycle

RISK EVALUATION WHILE PORTFOLIO MONITORING

Event Driven Volatility

If the investment thesis is intact,

the Portfolio Manager may increase

the weight in the holding.

If the investment thesis is

broken, the portfolio manager

may exit from the stock.

Noise Driven Volatility

Compelling valuations may

trigger increase in the

weight.

Risk parameters are highly unstable through time because

noise driven volatility differs from event-driven volatility.

Abbreviations used: PE – Price to Earnings; PB – Price to Book Value; RoE, Return on Equity; RoCE – Return on Capital Employed; EBITDA – Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization; FCF – Free Cash Flow

The Risk Control measures mentioned above are only indicative. There may be other parameters which will be considered for evaluation of risk by the Portfolio Manager.

Investing in securities involves certain risks and considerations associated generally with making investments in securities. The value of the portfolio investments may be affected generally by factors

affecting financial markets, such as price and volume, volatility in interest rates, currency exchange rates, changes in regulatory and administrative policies of the Government or any other appropriate

authority (including tax laws) or other political and economic developments. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the objective of the Portfolio would be achieved. The value of the portfolios

may fluctuate and can go up or down. Prospective investors are advised to carefully review the Disclosure Document, Client Agreement, and other related documents carefully and in its entirety and

consult their legal, tax and financial advisors to determine possible legal, tax and financial or any other consequences of investing under this Portfolio, before making an investment decision. The

Stock(s)/Sector(s) mentioned in this material do not constitute any recommendation of the same and the portfolios may or may not have any future positions in these Stock(s)/Sector(s).

The composition of the portfolio is subject to changes within the provisions of the disclosure document. The benchmark of the portfolios can be changed from time to time in the future. The inability of

the Portfolio Manager to make intended securities purchases due to settlement problems could cause the portfolio to miss certain investment opportunities. By the same rationale, the inability to sell

securities held in the portfolio due to the absence of a well-developed and liquid secondary market for securities would result, at times, in potential losses to the portfolio. Please note that past perfor-

mance of the financial products, instruments and the portfolio does not necessarily indicate the future prospects and performance thereof. Such past performance may or may not be sustained in future.

Portfolio Manager’s investment decisions may not be always profitable, as actual market movements may be at variance with anticipated trends. The investors are not being offered any guaranteed or

assured returns. The AMC may be engaged in buying/selling of such securities. Please refer to the Disclosure Document and Client Agreement for portfolio specific risk factors.

Individual returns of Clients for a particular portfolio type may vary significantly from the data on performance of the portfolios as may be depicted by the Portfolio Manager from time to time. This is due

to factors such as timing of entry and exit, timing of additional flows and redemptions, individual client mandates, specific portfolio construction characteristics or structural parameters, which may have

a bearing on individual portfolio performance. No claims may be made or entertained for any variances between the performance depictions and individual portfolio performance. Neither ICICI Prudential

Asset Management Company Ltd. (the AMC) nor its Directors, Employees or Sponsors shall be in any way liable for any variations noticed in the returns of individual portfolios.

The Client shall not make any claim against the Portfolio Manager against any losses (notional or real) or against any loss of opportunity for gain under various PMS Products, on account of or arising out

of such circumstance/ change in market condition or for any other reason which may specifically affect a particular sector or security.

The Portfolio Manager shall have the sole and absolute discretion to invest in respect of the Client’s investment in any type of security subject to the Agreement and as stated in the Disclosure Document

and make such changes in the investments and invest some or all of the Client’s investment amount in such manner and in such markets as it deems fit would benefit the Client. The Portfolio Manager’s

decision (taken in good faith) in deployment of the Clients’ account is absolute and final and can never be called in question or be open to review at any time during the currency of the agreement or any

time thereafter except on the ground of malafide, fraud, conflict of interest or gross negligence. This right of the Portfolio Manager shall be exercised strictly in accordance with the relevant Acts, rules

and regulations, guidelines and notifications in force from time to time.

By their nature, certain market risk disclosures are only estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in the future. As a result, actual future gains or losses could materially differ

from those that have been estimated. The recipient(s) alone shall be fully responsible/are liable for any decision taken on the basis of this material. All recipients of this material should before dealing

and/or transacting in any of the products referred to in this material make their own investigation, seek appropriate professional advice. The investments discussed in this may not be suitable for all inves-

tors. Financial products and instruments are subject to market risks and yields may fluctuate depending on various factors affecting capital/debt markets. There is no assurance or guarantee that the

objectives of the portfolio will be achieved. Please note that past performance of the financial products, instruments and the portfolio does not necessarily indicate the future prospects and performance

thereof. Such past performance may or may not be sustained in future. Portfolio Manager’s investment decisions may not be always profitable, as actual market movements may be at variance with

anticipated trends. The investors are not being offered any guaranteed or assured returns.
