Of 34 multi-asset allocation funds in India, only one scheme, Edelweiss Multi Asset Allocation Fund, carries a 'Low' risk rating from Value Research, according to AMFI's June data. Five funds are rated 'High' risk and 28 are classified 'Very High' risk. No fund falls in the three intermediate categories. The risk varies sharply because portfolio mixes differ widely. Edelweiss's fund holds nearly 60% in debt and 48% in cash. In contrast, the five High-risk funds have bigger equity stakes, while the Aditya Birla Sun Life scheme, rated Very High, invests 71% in equity. Multi-asset funds must spread across at least three asset classes, but their risk levels depend on the actual allocation, not the category name.
