Bajaj Finserv Large and Mid cap fund is an open ended equity fund investing in large and mid cap stocks, that sets itself apart with its MOAT investing strategy. The stock selection largely focuses on quality-oriented companies with strong economic moats – distinct competitive advantages that can give companies a long-term edge over their peers.
The fund currently focuses on 69 high-quality stocks with strong economic moats such as management strength, cost advantages, economies of sale, switching costs, brand strength, and patent. The fund seeks to stay resilient to market fluctuations and keep its focus on high quality businesses that can sustain profitability over time. This helps the fund create a well-diversified portfolio built for long-term wealth creation.

The fund has navigated dynamic market conditions while staying true to its core philosophy of investing in quality businesses with strong long-term potential.
