Edelweiss Flexi Cap Fund

Edelweiss Flexi Cap Fund is a flexi cap equity fund from Edelweiss Mutual Fund. This page covers the direct plan, growth option, the version with no distributor commission inside its expense ratio. A fund in this category can move freely between large, mid-sized and small companies as the manager sees fit, with at least 65 percent in equity at all times.

It manages ₹3,509 crore of investors' money and charges an expense ratio of 0.76 percent a year, deducted before the NAV is struck. Its direct plan lost 3.56 percent over the past year but has returned 14.3 percent a year over three years, 11.3 percent a year over five years and 14.7 percent a year over ten years; figures beyond a year are annualised, and past returns say nothing certain about future ones. The scheme is managed by Harshad Patwardhan.

The riskometer places it at very high risk, where most equity funds sit.
