When investors ask you questions like:
● “What exactly does this fund invest in?”
● “How has this fund performed over the years?”
● “Is this fund risky or conservative?”
● “What strategy does this AMC really follow?”
…the best way to answer is not with guesswork — but with factsheets.
And the good news is: Top mutual fund software for distributors in India now makes factsheets available instantly.
You don’t have to visit every AMC website separately anymore. You don’t have to download and manage hundreds of PDFs manually. Everything is available scheme-wise and AMC-wise inside the same platform.
Let’s break this down in simple language.
What is a Fund Factsheet?
A fund factsheet is simply a document that tells the complete story of a mutual fund scheme in a structured format.
Think of it as the fund’s report card. It helps you and your investors understand:
● what the fund is trying to do
● where it is investing money
● how it has performed historically
● how risky it is
● how much it charges in fees
Instead of searching multiple sources, a factsheet puts everything in one place — clear, concise, verified.
Types of Factsheets Available in Mutual Fund Software
Top platforms usually provide two kinds of factsheets:
1. Scheme-Wise Factsheet
This factsheet is for a single mutual fund scheme.
For example:
● SBI Bluechip Fund
● ICICI Prudential Balanced Advantage Fund
● HDFC Midcap Opportunities Fund
A scheme-wise factsheet typically includes:
● fund objective
● benchmark used
● returns (1-year, 3-year, 5-year, since inception)
● XIRR / CAGR
● major stock & sector holdings
● asset allocation (equity, debt, cash)
● fund manager details
● risk ratios (beta, Sharpe, standard deviation etc.)
● expense ratio
● exit load
This helps when a client asks you to evaluate one particular scheme in detail.
It answers questions like:
● “Should I continue this fund?”
● “Is this fund aggressive or conservative?”
● “Why is this fund underperforming recently?”
● “Where is this fund actually investing?”
2. AMC-Wise Factsheet
This one belongs to the entire AMC (mutual fund house).
Example:
● HDFC Mutual Fund AMC Factsheet
● Nippon India Mutual Fund AMC Factsheet
● Mirae Asset AMC Factsheet
An AMC factsheet gives:
● list of all schemes the AMC manages
● AUM distribution
● investment philosophy
● risk management approach
● performance summary of schemes
● category-wise comparison
It answers bigger-picture questions like:
● “Is this AMC conservative or aggressive overall?”
● “Which AMC performs better in small-cap space?”
● “How many equity vs debt schemes does this AMC run?”
● “How is their long-term investment style?”
This is extremely useful during portfolio review meetings or AMC-wise strategy discussions.
