Level of Risk in the fund
Mid Cap funds invest in mid-sized companies that have the potential to become big. SEBI defines companies ranked 101st to 250th companies by market capitalization as midcap companies. As per SEBI?s, mandate midcap funds should invest minimum 65% of their assets in midcap companies. The balance 35% in midcap funds can be invested in large cap, small cap or other asset classes.
Mid-sized companies like these can offer more growth potential than larger companies but at lower risk levels than smaller-sized companies. Midcap companies can be market leaders in certain industry sectors or sub-sectors / niches. They can also be challengers to large caps in certain sectors. These businesses tend to be less capital intensive, more nimble and innovative than large caps. At the same time, they tend to be more stable than small caps due to their size and balance sheet strengths.
Mid-sized companies are often under-researched compared to large caps, leading to more inefficiency in price discovery.. This provides opportunities to fund managers of identifying stocks that are trading at significant discounts to their fair values and benefits of valuation re-rating in the future. This can create significant alphas for investors.
From a risk / return perspective, midcap funds are somewhere between large caps and small caps. They offer greater growth potential than large caps and are less volatile than small caps.
Long term investors & are willing to remain invested for at least 5 years.
SIP investors who are disciplined to continue SIP for longer tenure.

Experienced investors who can take advantage for market corrections as good opportunities to invest more.
Investors can tactically allocate 10-15% or even higher of their overall portfolio to midcap funds depending on their risk appetite.
It's important for investors to understand the associated risks, and align their investment goals with the risk / return characteristics of mid-cap funds.

Different midcap funds have different investment styles and strategies. DSP Midcap Fund uses bottom up approach to select stocks focusing on High ROE and earnings growth. The fund tends to avoid companies with corporate governance issues, capital misallocation, are sensitive to changing regulations, in highly cyclical industries, with red flags in related party transactions and with complex organizational structures. In addition to quantitative factors, DSP Midcap Fund uses the following qualitative factors to select stocks:-
Mid-cap funds generally have a higher level of risk compared to large-cap funds. The risk stems from the fact that mid-sized companies, while often having significant growth potential, may also be more vulnerable to economic downturns due to their smaller size. Furthermore, the valuations of midcap companies tend to run up faster than large caps, and hence they can experience deeper price corrections in volatile markets. Investors considering mid-cap mutual funds should carefully assess their risk tolerance, investment goals, and time horizon to make informed investment decisions.
Returns from mid-cap investments can vary widely and are influenced by market conditions, economic factors, the investment strategy of the fund manager and the investment horizon. Mid-cap stocks generally offer the potential for higher returns compared to large caps due to their growth prospects, but they also come with increased volatility and risk, in other words, they may underperform in the short term. Therefore, investors should have longer investment horizons in midcap fund compared to large cap funds.
