For details, refer Section II.
C. Investment Strategy The Scheme will be actively managed. The Scheme endeavours to generate income by investing in high credit quality instruments issued by companies in financial sector. The Scheme will invest a minimum of 80% of its net assets in corporate bonds which are rated AA+ & above and money market instruments rated A1+ by credit rating agencies.
The investments will be made following a detailed assessment of the liquidity, rates and the state of the credit market. The investment team will follow a rigorous and in-depth credit evaluation of the debt and money market instruments. The credit evaluation monitors the credit worthiness of an issuer and assesses the credit exposure limit.
The Scheme will essentially follow a bottom-up approach while taking into consideration the study of the operating environment of the issuer, past track record as well as the prospects of the issuer and also the short and long term financial health of the issuer.
The Scheme will primarily invest in debt & debt related instruments of financial services sector with shorter duration maturities broadly aligning with the duration profile of the Scheme’s benchmark index. Pursuant to para 7.22.5 of SEBI Master Circular dated March 20, 2026, currently Crisil Financial Services Short Term Debt Index is prescribed as the first-tier Benchmark by AMFI for Financial Services Debt Sectoral Fund. In future, if AMFI prescribes any other First Tier Benchmark for Sectoral Debt Fund which is more suitable / appropriate for the Scheme, then AMC may change the benchmark of the Scheme after complying with SEBI MF Regulations and other prevailing guidelines. In case of change of benchmark, the portfolio positioning and duration profile of the Scheme will re-aligned with the duration profile of revised benchmark. Any change in benchmark will not be considered as Fundamental Attribute Change.
Risk Control Risk is an inherent part of the investment function. Effective risk management is critical to fund management for achieving financial soundness. Investments by the Scheme shall be made as per the investment objectives of the Scheme and provisions of SEBI MF regulations. AMC has incorporated adequate safeguards to manage risk in the portfolio construction process. Risk control would involve managing risk in order to keep it in line with the investment objective of the Scheme. The risk control process involves identifying the risk and taking proper measures for the same. Risk such as Liquidity risk, volatility risk, Interest rate risk and such other risk can be partly mitigated through diversification, staggering of maturities, as well as internal controls. The Scheme may also use various derivatives products in accordance with the scheme objective and within the regulatory restriction for the purpose of trading, hedging and portfolio balancing from time to time, with an attempt to protect the value of the portfolio and enhance Unitholders' interest. While these measures are Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 13expected to mitigate the above risks to a large extent, there can be no assurance that this risk would be completely eliminated.
Investment in Derivatives The Scheme may invest in various derivative instruments, which are permissible under the applicable Regulations and shall also be subject to the investment objective and strategy of the Scheme and the internal limits, if any, as laid down from time to time. For detailed derivative strategies, please refer to SAI.
Portfolio Turnover The Scheme being an open-ended Scheme, it is expected that there would be a number of Subscriptions and Redemptions on a daily basis. The fund management team depending on its view and subject to there being an opportunity, may trade in securities, which will result in increase in portfolio turnover. Further, in the debt market, trading opportunities may arise due to changes in interest rate policy announced by RBI, shifts in the yield curve, credit rating changes or any other factors where in the opinion of the fund manager there is an opportunity to enhance the total return of the portfolio, which will result in increase in portfolio turnover.
There may be an increase in transaction cost such as brokerage paid, if trading is done frequently. However, the cost would be negligible as compared to the total expenses of the Scheme. Frequent trading may increase the profits which will offset the increase in costs. The fund manager will endeavor to optimize portfolio turnover to maximize gains and minimize risks keeping in mind the cost associated with it. However, it is difficult to measure with reasonable accuracy the likely turnover in the portfolio of the Scheme.
D. Benchmark Index Benchmark Justification Index Crisil Financial On the basis of investment objective/ asset allocation pattern of the Scheme, Crisil Services Short Financial Services Short Term Debt Index is currently selected as the First tier Term Debt Index Benchmark from the list of benchmarks circulated by AMFI to be used by AMCs as a First Tier Benchmark, pursuant to para 7.22.5 as per SEBI Master Circular dated March 20, 2026 on guiding principles for selection of first tier benchmark.
The Trustee / AMC reserve the right to change the benchmark for evaluation of performance of the Scheme from time to time in conformity with the investment objectives and appropriateness of the benchmark subject to the SEBI MF Regulations and other prevailing guidelines.

Website link to review details of investments by the AMC in the Scheme is as follows:
https://www.invescomutualfund.com/literature-and-form?tab=Scheme Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 16Part III. OTHER DETAILS A. Computation of NAV The Net Asset Value (NAV) per Unit of the Scheme will be computed by dividing the net assets of the Scheme by the number of Units outstanding on the valuation day. The Mutual Fund will value its investments according to the principle of fair valuation as specified in Seventh Schedule of the SEBI MF Regulations, or such norms as may be specified by SEBI from time to time.
The Net Assets Value (NAV) per unit of the Scheme shall be calculated by following method:
NAV (Rs.) = Market or Fair Current Assets Current Liabilities Value of Scheme's + - and Provisions Investments ____________________________________________________________ No. of Units outstanding under Scheme on the Valuation Day NAV shall be rounded upto four decimals.
Illustration of Computation of NAV:
The computation of NAV per unit using various components is explained as follows:
Particulars Amount in Rs.
Market or Fair Value of Scheme’s Investments ……(A) 10,00,00,000.00
Add: Current Assets including Accrued Income …..(B) 75,34,345.00
Less: Current Liabilities and Provisions …………..(C) (30,00,000.00) Net Assets (A+B-C) 10,45,34,345.00 No. of Units outstanding under Scheme on the Valuation Day: 100,000.
The NAV per unit will be computed as follows: 10,45,34,345 / 100,000 = Rs. 1045.3435 p.u. (rounded off to four decimals).
For other details such as policies w.r.t computation of NAV, rounding off, investment in foreign securities, procedure in case of delay in disclosure of NAV etc. refer to SAI.
Methodology for calculation of sale and re-purchase price of the units: • Ongoing price for subscription (purchase) / switch-in (from other schemes/plans of the mutual fund) by investors.
The Purchase Price of Units is the price at which an investor can subscribe /purchase Units of the Scheme. During the continuous offer of the Scheme, the Units will be available at the Applicable NAV.
Pursuant to para 11.7.1. of SEBI Master Circular dated March 20, 2026, there shall be no entry load for purchase of Units of the Scheme. Accordingly, Purchase Price will be equal to Applicable NAV.
Example: The applicable NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 1100.0000 p.u. Since Entry load is not applicable, the sale / subscription price will be calculated as follows:
Sale / Subscription Price = Applicable NAV*(1+ Entry Load) = Rs. 1100.00*(1+0) = Rs. 1100.00*1 = Rs.1100.0000 The investors should also note that stamp duty at the applicable rate will be levied on applicable transactions i.e. purchase, switch-in, IDCW reinvestment, instalment of Systematic Investment Plan, Systematic Transfer Plan. Accordingly, pursuant to levy of stamp duty, the number of units allotted will Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 17be lower to that extent. For more details & impact of stamp duty on number of units allotted, please refer SAI • Ongoing price for redemption (sale) / switch outs (to other schemes/plans of the Mutual Fund) by investors Ongoing price for redemption /switch out (to other schemes/plans of the Mutual Fund) is price which a Unit holder will receive for redemption/switch-outs. During the continuous offer of the Scheme, the Unit holder can redeem the units at applicable NAV, subject to payment of Exit Load, if any. It will be
calculated as follows:
Redemption Price = Applicable NAV*(1-Exit Load, if any) Example 1: The applicable NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 1100.0000 p.u. If the applicable Exit Load at the time of investments is 1%, then the repurchase / redemption price will be calculated as follows:
= Rs. 1100.00*(1-0.01) = Rs.1100.00*0.99 = Rs. 1089.0000 Example 2: The applicable NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 1100.0000 p.u. If the applicable Exit Load at the time of investment is Nil, then the repurchase / redemption price will be calculated as follows:
Repurchase / Redemption Price = Applicable NAV*(1-Exit Load) = Rs. 1100.00*(1-0) = Rs.1100.00*1 = Rs. 1100.0000 Since the Scheme is not an equity scheme, Securities Transaction Tax (STT) is not applicable.
The Redemption / Repurchase Price will not be lower than 97% of the Applicable NAV.
B. New Fund Offer (NFO) Expenses These expenses are incurred for the purpose of various activities related to the NFO like sales and distribution fees paid, marketing and advertising, registrar expenses, printing and stationery, bank charges etc.

Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 21SECTION II I. INTRODUCTION A. Definition / Interpretation For the meaning of words, expressions and abbreviations used in this Scheme Information Document, interpretations, please click on the functional website Link given below:
https://www.invescomutualfund.com/literature-and-form?tab=Scheme B. Risk Factors • Scheme specific risk factors • Risk Factors associated with Financial Services Sector Investing in a sectoral fund is based on the premise that the Scheme will seek to invest in companies belonging to the Financial Services sector. This will limit the capability of the Scheme to invest in another sectors/theme. These funds would predominantly invest in debt and debt related instruments of companies engaged in the financial services sector/theme and hence concentration risk is expected to be high. Also, as with all debt investing, there is the risk that companies in this sector will not achieve its expected earnings results, or that an unexpected change in the market or within the company will occur, both of which may adversely affect investment results. Thus, investing in a financial service sector specific fund could involve potentially greater volatility and risk.
• Risk associated with Fixed Income and Money Market Instruments:
Interest - Rate Risk Fixed Income and Money Market Instruments run interest-rate risk. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of existing fixed income securities fall and when interest rates fall, the prices increase. The extent of rise or fall in the price is a function of existing coupons, days to maturity, increase or decrease in the level of interest, credit quality, demand and supply. However, in case of Government securities credit risk remains zero, their prices are influenced by the movement in interest rates in the financial system. In the case of floating rate instruments, an additional risk could arise because of the changes in the spreads of floating rate instruments.
With the increase in the spread of floating rate instruments, the price can fall and with decrease in spread of floating rate instruments, the prices can rise. Moreover, the floating rate instruments having a periodical interest rate reset carry lower interest rate risk compared to a fixed rate debt security. However, in the falling interest rate scenario, the returns on floating rate debt instruments may not be better than those on fixed rate debt instruments.
Credit Risk Credit risk or default risk refers to the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security may default on interest payment or even in paying back the principal amount on maturity. Even where no default occurs, the price of a security may be affected because of change in the credit rating of the issuer/instrument, and the price of a security goes down if the credit rating agency downgrades the rating of the issuer. In case of Government securities, there is minimal credit risk to that extent. Different types of securities in which the Scheme would invest carry different types and levels of risk. Lower rated or unrated securities are more likely to react to developments affecting the market and credit risk than the highly rated securities which react primarily to movements in the general level of interest rates. Lower rated or unrated securities also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than higher rated securities.
Liquidity or Marketability Risk This refers to the ease with which a security can be sold at or near to its valuation i.e. yield-to maturity
(YTM). The primary measure of liquidity risk is the spread between the bid price and offer price quoted by a dealer. Fixed income securities can be either listed on any stock exchange or may be unlisted. Moreover, the securities that are listed on the stock exchange carry lower liquidity risk, but the ability to sell these securities is limited by the overall trading volumes and may lead to the Scheme incurring losses till the security is finally sold. Further, different segments of Indian financial markets have different settlement cycles and may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. Even though the Government Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 22securities market is more liquid compared to other debt instruments, on occasions, there could be difficulties in transacting in the market due to extreme volatility or unusual constriction in market volumes or on occasions when an unusually large transaction has to be put through. While money market instruments are fairly liquid but lack a well-developed secondary market, and hence may restrict the ability of the Scheme to sell such instruments.
Securities which are not quoted on the stock exchange(s) may be illiquid and can carry higher liquidity risk in comparison with securities which are listed on the stock exchange(s) and offer exit option to the investor including put option. The Scheme would invest in the securities which are not listed but offer attractive yields. This may however increase the risk of the portfolio.
Re-investment Risk This refers to the interest rate risk at which the intermediate cash flows received from the securities in the Scheme, including maturity proceeds, are reinvested. Investments in fixed income securities may carry reinvestment risk as interest rates prevailing on the interest or maturity due dates may differ from the original coupon of the debt security. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested at a lower rate.
• Risks associated with Investing in Corporate Debt instruments In addition to Interest rate risk, Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk, Re-investment Risk as mentioned above, corporate debt instruments will also be exposed to Economic Risk. If the economy falters, some investors are likely to sell their corporate debt instruments and replace the same with safer ones, such as Government securities. During such events, as there will be more sellers than buyers for corporate debt instruments, the supply will exceed demand and prices of the corporate debt instruments will fall and the investors may be exposed to a potential losses.
• Risk Factors Associated with repo transaction in Corporate Debt Securities
Counterparty Risk: This refers to the inability of the seller to meet the obligation to buy back securities at the contracted price. Fund Manager will endeavor to manage counterparty risk by dealing only with counterparties having strong credit profiles assessed through in-house credit analysis and / or with entities regulated by SEBI/RBI/IRDA. In the event of default by the repo counterparty, the Scheme will have recourse to the corporate debt securities given as collateral to recover the investment by selling the collateral in the market. However, selling of collateral will also be subject to liquidity risk in the market and the Scheme may incur impact cost at the time of selling the collateral.
Collateral Risk: Collateral risk arises when the market value of the securities is inadequate to meet the repo obligations or there is downward migration in rating of collateral. Further if the rating of collateral goes below the minimum required rating during the term of repo or collateral becomes ineligible for any reason, counterparty will be expected to substitute the collateral. In case of failure to do so, IAMI / Schemes of the Fund will explore the option for early termination of the trade.
• Risk Factor associated with investing in Securities Segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement Clearing Corporation of India Ltd. (‘CCIL’) is providing clearing and settlement services, for Triparty Repo trades in Government Securities, under its Securities Segment. CCIL would act as a Central Counterparty to all the borrow and lend Triparty Repo trades received by it for settlement. CCIL would also be performing the role responsibilities of Triparty Repo Agent, in terms of Repurchase transactions (Repo) (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2018 as amended from time to time. CCIL would settle the Triparty Repo trades, in terms of its Securities Segment Regulations.
The funds settlement of members is achieved by multilateral netting of the funds position in Triparty Repo with the funds position in Outright and Market Repo and settling in the books of RBI for members who maintain an RBI Current Account. In respect of other members, funds settlement is achieved in the books of Settlement Bank. Securities settlement for Triparty Repo trades shall be achieved in the Gilt Account of the Member maintained with CCIL. Securities obligation for outright and market repo trades shall be settled in the SGL / CSGL account of the Member with RBI.
Invesco Mutual Fund is a member of securities segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement of the CCIL.
Since all transactions of the Fund in government securities and in Tri-party Repo trades are settled centrally Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 23through the infrastructure and settlement systems provided by CCIL, it reduces the settlement and counterparty risks considerably for transactions in the said segments.
To mitigate the potential losses arising in case any member defaults in settling the transactions routed through CCIL, CCIL maintains a Default Fund. CCIL shall maintain two separate Default Funds in respect of its securities segment, one to meet the losses airing out of any default by its members from outright and repo trades and other for meeting losses arising out of any default by its members from Triparty Repo trades.
In case any clearing member fails to honor his settlement obligations, the Default Fund is utilized to complete the settlement applying the Default Waterfall Sequence. As per the said waterfall mechanism, after the defaulter’s margins and defaulter’s contribution to default fund have been appropriated, CCIL’s contribution is used to meet the losses. Post utilization of CCIL’s contribution, if there is still a loss to be met, then contribution of non-defaulting members to Default Fund is utilized to meet the said loss.
The Scheme is subject to the risk of losing initial margin and contribution to Default Fund in the event of failure of any settlement obligation. Further the Scheme’s contribution is allowed to be used to meet the residual loss in case of default by the other clearing member (the defaulting member).
Further, CCIL periodically prescribes a list of securities eligible for contribution as collaterals by members.
Presently, all Central Government Securities and Treasury Bills are accepted as collaterals by CCIL. The above risk factor may undergo a change in case the CCIL notifies securities other than Government of India Securities as eligible for contributions as collateral.
• Risks associated with investing in Foreign Securities Subject to necessary approvals, the Scheme may also invest in overseas financial assets as permitted under the applicable regulations. The value of an investment in foreign securities may depend on general global economic factors or specific economic and political factors relating to the country or countries in which the foreign issuer operates. To the extent the assets of the Scheme are invested in overseas financial asset, there may be risk associated with fluctuation in foreign exchange rates, restriction on repatriation of capital and earnings under the exchange control regulations and transaction procedure in overseas market. The repatriation of capital to India may also be hampered by changes in regulations concerning exchange controls, political circumstances, bi-lateral conflicts or prevalent tax laws.
Investment in foreign securities carries currency risk. Currency risk is a form of risk that arises from the change in price of one currency against other. The exchange risk associated with a foreign denominated instrument is a key element in foreign investment. This risk flows from differential monetary policy and growth in real productivity, which results in differential inflation rates. The risk arises because currencies may move in relation to each other.
• Risks associated with Investing in Derivatives Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate losses to the investor. Execution of such strategies depends upon the ability of the fund manager to identify such opportunities. Identification and execution of the strategies to be pursued by the fund manager involve uncertainty and decision of fund manager may not always be profitable. No assurance can be given that the fund manager will be able to identify or execute such strategies. The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or possibly greater than the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. The use of a derivative requires an understanding not only of the underlying instrument but also of the derivative itself. Derivatives require the maintenance of adequate controls to monitor the transactions entered into, the ability to assess the risk that a derivative adds to the portfolio and the ability to forecast price or interest rate movements correctly. Other risks include risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of the derivative to correlate perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices, illiquidity risk whereby the Scheme may not be able to sell or purchase derivative quickly enough at a fair price.
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 24• Risk Factor associated with investing in Tier I and Tier II Bonds:
Tier I and Tier II Bonds are unsecured and the RBI prescribes certain restrictions in relation to the
terms of these Bonds:
Tier I and Tier II bonds are unsecured in nature. The claims of the Bondholders shall (i) be subordinated to the claims of all depositors and general creditors of the Bank; (ii) neither be secured nor covered by any guarantee of the Issuer or its related entity or other arrangement that legally or economically enhances the seniority of the claim vis-a-vis creditors of the Bank; (iii) Unless the terms of any subsequent issuance of bonds/debentures by the Bank specifies that the claims of such subsequent bond holders are senior or subordinate to the Bonds issued under the Disclosure Document or unless the RBI specifies otherwise in its guidelines, the claims of the Bondholders shall be pari passu with claims of holders of such subsequent debentures/bond issuances of the Bank; (iv) rank pari passu without preference amongst themselves and other subordinated debt eligible for inclusion in Tier 1 / Tier 2 Capital as the case may be. The Bonds are not redeemable at the option of the Bondholders or without the prior consent of RBI. The Bonds (including all claims, demands on the Bonds and interest thereon, whether accrued or contingent) are issued subject to loss absorbency features applicable for non-equity capital instruments issued in terms of Basel III Guidelines including in compliance with the requirements of Annex 5 thereof and are subject to certain loss absorbency features as described in bond prospectus and required of Tier 1 / Tier 2 instruments at the Point of Non Viability as provided for in Annex 16 of the aforesaid Basel III Guidelines as amended from time to time.
The Bonds are essentially non-equity regulatory instruments, forming part of a Bank's capital, governed by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines. These instruments have certain unique features which, inter-alia, grant the issuer (i.e. banks, in consultation with RBI) a discretion in terms of writing down the principal / interest, to skip interest payments, to make an early recall etc. without commensurate right for investors to legal recourse, even if such actions of the issuer might result in potential loss to investors. Payment of coupon on the Bonds is subject to the terms of Information Memorandum, including Coupon Discretion, Dividend Stopper Clause, Loss Absorption as contained in the Information Memorandum. The Bonds are subject to loss absorption features as per the guidelines prescribed by RBI.
There may be no active market for the Bonds on the platform of the Stock Exchanges. As a result, the liquidity and market prices of the Bonds may fail to develop and may accordingly be adversely
affected:
There is no assurance that a trading market for the Bonds will exist and no assurance as to the liquidity of any trading market. Although an application will be made to list the Bonds on the NSE and/or BSE, there can be no assurance that an active market for the Bonds will develop, and if such a market were to develop, there is no obligation on the issuer to maintain such a market. The liquidity and market prices of the Bonds can be expected to vary with changes in market and economic conditions, financial condition and prospects and other factors that generally influence market price of such instruments. Such fluctuations may significantly affect the liquidity and market price of the Bonds, which may trade at a discount to the price at which one purchases these Bonds.
Issuer is not required to and will not create or maintain a Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) for
the Bonds issued under this Disclosure Document:
As per the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014, as amended, no Debenture Redemption Reserve is required to be created by Banking Companies issuing debentures.
There is no assurance that the Tier I / Tier II bonds will not be downgraded:
The Rating agencies, which rate the Bonds, have a slightly different rating methodology for Tier I and Tier II bonds. In the event of deterioration of the financial health of the Issuer or due to other reasons, the rating of the Bonds may be downgraded whilst the ratings of other bonds issued by the issuer may remain constant.
In such a scenario, for Tier I and Tier II Bond holders may incur losses on their investment. • Risks associated with Investing in Securitized Debt The Scheme may invest in securitized debt such as asset-backed securities (ABS) or mortgage backed securities (MBS). ABS are backed by other assets such as credit card, automobile or consumer loan receivables, retail loan installment or participations in pools of leases. Credit support for these securities may be based on the underlying assets and/or provided through credit enhancements by a third party. The values of these securities are sensitive to changes in the credit quality of the underlying collateral, the credit strength of the credit enhancement, changes in interest rates and at times the financial condition of the issuer.
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 25MBS is an asset backed security whose cash flows are backed by the principal and interest payments of a set of mortgage loans. In the case of mortgage backed securities, these loans are usually first mortgages on residential properties. With asset backed securities, the loans might be credit card receivables, auto loans and leases or home equity loans. As the underlying loans are paid off by the borrowers, the investors in MBS/ABS receive payments of interest and principal over time. MBS, particularly home loan transactions, are subject to interest-rate risk and prepayment risk. A change in interest rates can affect the pace of payments on the underlying loans, which in turn, affects total return on the securities. ABS also carries credit or default risks.
If many borrowers on the underlying loans default, losses could exceed the credit enhancement level and result in losses to investors in an ABS transaction. ABS has structure risk due to a unique characteristic known as early amortization or early payout risk.
MBS carry interest rate risk. Maturity is a moving target with these securities. Depending on what happens to interest rates after issuing the MBS, the maturity of the bond could shorten or lengthen dramatically. This is because homeowners are allowed to refinance their mortgages as decline in interest rates encourages many homeowners to refinance their mortgages. Whereas rise in interest rates causes homeowners to hold on to their mortgages longer. This will extend the originally estimated maturity dates of MBS.
ABS and MBS are also subject to prepayment risk. When purchasing an MBS, investors usually calculate some degree of prepayment into their pricing. However, if prepayment happens unexpectedly or faster than predicted, it may result in reduced actual duration as compared to the expected duration of the paper at the time of purchase, which may adversely impact the portfolio yield.
The yield-to-maturity of such securities cannot be known for certain at the time of purchase since the cash flows are not known. When principal is returned early, future interest payments will not be paid on that part of the principal. If the bond was purchased at a premium, the bond’s yield will be less than what was estimated at the time of purchase.
The credit enhancement stipulated represents a limited loss cover to the investors. These certificates represent an undivided beneficial interest in the underlying receivables and do not represent an obligation of either the issuer or the seller or the originator, or the parent or any affiliate of the seller, issuer and originator. No financial recourse is available to the certificate holders against the investors’ representative. Delinquencies and credit losses may cause depletion of the amount available under the credit enhancement and thereby the investor payouts to the certificate holders may get affected if the amount available in the credit enhancement facility is not enough to cover the shortfall. On persistent default of an obligor to repay his obligation, the servicer may repossess and sell the asset. However, many factors may affect, delay or prevent the repossession of such asset or the length of time required to realise the sale proceeds on such sales. In addition, the price at which such asset may be sold may be lower than the amount due from that obligor.
These securities also carry risk associated with the collection agent. With respect to the certificates, the servicer will deposit all payments received from the obligors into the collection account. However, there could be a time gap between collection by a servicer and depositing the same into the collection account especially considering that some of the collections may be in the form of cash. In this interim period, collections from the loan agreements may not be segregated from other funds of originator. If originator in its capacity as servicer fails to remit such funds due to investors, the investors may be exposed to a potential loss.
• Risks associated with Securities Lending for Debt Instruments As with other modes of extensions of credit, there are risks inherent to securities lending, including the risk of failure of the other party, in this case the approved intermediary, to comply with the terms of the agreement entered into between the lender of securities i.e. the Scheme and the approved intermediary. Such failure can result in the possible loss of rights to the collateral put up by the borrower of the securities, the inability of the approved intermediary to return the securities deposited by the lender and the possible loss of any corporate benefits accruing to the lender from the securities deposited with the approved intermediary. The Scheme may not be able to sell such lent securities and this can lead to temporary illiquidity.
• Risks associated with Short Selling The Schemes may enter into short selling transactions, subject to SEBI and RBI Regulations. Short positions carry the risk of losing money and these losses may grow unlimited theoretically if the price of the stock Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 26increases without any limit. This may result in major loss to the Scheme. At times, the participants may not be able to cover their short positions, if the price increases substantially. If numbers of short sellers try to cover their position simultaneously, it may lead to disorderly trading in the stock and thereby can briskly escalate the price even further making it difficult or impossible to liquidate short position quickly at reasonable prices. In additions, short selling also carries the risk of inability to borrow the security by the participants thereby requiring the participants to purchase the securities sold short to cover the position even at unreasonable prices.
• Risks associated with investing in SO Rated Papers In addition to all the risks associated with the plain vanilla instruments like NCDs / Money market instruments etc., any instrument rated with the suffix (SO) is subject to certain additional risks like:
• Underlying loan pools in case of SO rated securities can be of varying types and nature. SO securities are rated and assessed based on assumption around homogeneity of the underlying loan pools. In certain cases, the loan pools can show behavioral characteristics which are very different from initial assumptions and as such increase the credit risks inherent in the transaction. Additionally, the loan pools may have pre-payments which can increase the interest rate risk in the securities.
• In case of SO rated securities, the structure of the transaction carries comingling risk and risk of the servicer of the transaction. As such, legal clauses and structural features are very important in addition to issuer credit risk since lack of sufficient structural protection can cause leakage of cash and / or security being available for investors.
• SO rated securities are complex structures with a variety of credit enhancements. Debt securities lack a well-developed secondary market in India, and due to structured nature of SO securities, the liquidity in the market for these instruments is limited compared to similar rated normal debt instruments. Thus, lower secondary market liquidity in such instruments could cause challenges in timely selling by the scheme. Additionally due to limited liquidity, schemes may incur higher impact costs when such instruments are traded due to wider bid-offer spreads.
• Additional risks associated with the CE rated papers In addition to all the risks associated with the plain vanilla instruments like NCDs / Money market instruments etc., any instrument rated with the suffix (CE) is exposed to various additional risks on the basis of the explicit underlying Credit enhancement (CE) from a third party/ parent/ group company, in the form of corporate guarantee/ letter of comfort/ pledge of shares etc. The risk involved are:
• if the Credit Enhancement is in the form of Corporate Guarantee / Letter of Comfort, then there is a legal risk of enforcing the Corporate Guarantee / Letter of Comfort along with the credit risk pertaining to the Credit Enhancement provider.
• If the Credit Enhancement is in the form of pledge of shares, then the additional risks are those associated with equity price movement, share collateral cover, liquidity of shares pledged as collateral in the secondary market, availability of free shares with the CE provider to be provided as additional collateral. Further there is also a legal risk of enforcing the pledge of shares, operational risk in selling the shares in secondary market & the underlying impact cost.
• If the Credit Enhancement is in any other form, then there is a risk pertaining to legal enforceability of the credit enhancement and credit risk of the credit enhancement provider. • Risk associated with investing in Corporate Debt Market Development Fund (CDMDF) In accordance with the requirement of Regulation 40 of SEBI MF Regulations read with para 18.2 of SEBI Master Circular dated March 20, 2026 on Investment by Mutual Fund Schemes in units of Corporate Debt Market Development Fund, the Scheme shall invest 25 bps of its AUM in the units of the Corporate Debt Market Development Fund (‘CDMDF’). An incremental contribution to CDMDF shall be made every six months to ensure 25 bps of scheme AUM is invested in units of CDMDF. However, if AUM decreases there shall be no return or redemption from CDMDF. Contribution made to CDMDF, including the appreciations on the same, if any, shall be locked-in till winding up of the CDMDF.
• Risk Factors associated with investments in InvITs Market Risk: InvITs Investments are volatile and subject to price fluctuations on a daily basis owing to factors impacting the underlying assets. AMC/Fund Manager’s will do the necessary due diligence but actual market movements may be at variance with the anticipated trends.
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 27 Liquidity Risk: As the liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme could, at times, be restricted by trading volumes, settlement periods, dissolution of the trust, potential delisting of units on the exchange etc., the time taken by the Mutual Fund for liquidating the investments in the scheme may be high in the event of immediate redemption requirement. Investment in such securities may lead to increase in the scheme portfolio risk.
Reinvestment Risk: Investments in InvITs may carry reinvestment risk as there could be repatriation of funds by the Trusts in form of buyback of units or dividend pay-outs, etc. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested in assets providing lower returns.
Regulatory/Legal Risk: InvITs being new asset classes, rights of unit holders such as right to information etc. may differ from existing capital market asset classes under Indian Law. • Risks associated with segregated portfolio a) Investor holding units of segregated portfolio may not be able to liquidate their holding till the time recovery of money from the issuer.
b) Security(ies) held in segregated portfolio may not realize any value. c) Listing of units of segregated portfolio in recognized stock exchange does not necessarily guarantee their liquidity. There may not be active trading of units in the stock market. Further trading price of units on the stock market may be significantly lower than the prevailing NAV.
C. Risk Mitigation Strategies Type of Risk Risk Mitigation Measures Volatility By controlling issuer exposures through diversification in debt & money market instruments in line with scheme objectives, and applicable regulations to control overall portfolio volatility Concentration Maintaining adequate diversification by investing in various debt instruments such as corporate and PSU bonds, TREPS/ Repo and money market instruments of various issuers in line with scheme objectives, and applicable regulations.
Liquidity Investments will be made in debt & money market instruments having adequate liquidity in the secondary market. Staggered maturity profile in the portfolio to take care of liquidity. Dynamic monitoring of liquidity depending on the interest rate view.
Credit Risk The internal credit scoring model to identify appropriate credits will be predominantly used by the Scheme for identifying the securities. Moreover, the external credit ratings of all the assets will be of investment grade or better. The internal credit assessment team will actively monitor the changing credit profile of all invested credits.
II. INFORMATION ABOUT THE SCHEME:
A. Where will the scheme invest The corpus of the Scheme will be predominantly invested in AA+ and above rated corporate bonds issued
by companies in the financial services sector which will include but not limited to: • Corporate Debt Securities
1. Corporate debt securities are debt instruments issued by a corporation, the holder of which receives interest from the corporation periodically for a fixed period of time and gets back the principal along with the interest due at the end of the maturity period. All Non-government debt securities are categorized as corporate debt securities. Short term corporate debt is issued primarily as commercial paper whereas long-term debt is issued as bonds. In India the terms Corporate Bonds and Debentures are used interchangeably. Corporate Bonds can be issued by way of public issue where the retail investors as well as institutions can participate in the issue or by way of private placement where only a limited number of investors participate in the issue. Corporate Bonds unlike equity shares don’t guarantee an ownership in the Company but give regular income in the form of interest.
Corporate Bonds are differentiated on the basis of Maturity i.e. Short Term, Long Term or Medium Term; Coupon i.e. Fixed Rate, Floating Rate or Zero Coupon; Option i.e. Call Option or Put Option;
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 28Security i.e. secured by way of a charge on the assets of the borrower or unsecured and Redemption i.e. Single redemption or Amortizing Bonds. • Debt and Money Market Instruments
1. Certificate of Deposits (CDs) is a negotiable money market instrument issued by scheduled commercial banks and select all-India Financial Institutions that have been permitted by the RBI to raise short term resources. The minimum denomination of CD should be Rs. 1 Lac and in multiples of Rs. 1 Lac thereafter. The maturity period of CDs issued by the Banks is between 7 days to one year, whereas, in case of FIs, maturity is between one year to 3 years from the date of issue. CDs may be issued at a discount to face value. Banks/ FIs cannot buy back their own CDs before maturity.
2. Commercial Paper (CPs) is an unsecured negotiable money market instrument issued in the form of a promissory note, generally issued by the corporates, primary dealers and all India Financial Institutions as an alternative source of short term borrowings. They are issued at a discount to the face value as may be determined by the issuer. CP is traded in secondary market and can be freely bought and sold before maturity.
3. Treasury Bills (T-Bills) are issued by the Government of India to meet their short term borrowing requirements. T-Bills are issued for maturities of 91 days, 182 days and 364 days. T-bills are issued at a discount to their face value and redeemed at par.
4. Tri-party Repo means a repo contract where a third entity (apart from the borrower and lender), called a Tri-party Agent, acts as an intermediary between the two parties to the repo to facilitate services like collateral selection, payment and settlement, custody and management during the life of the transaction.
5. Municipal bonds are bonds issued by urban local bodies - municipal bodies (municipality) and Corporate Municipal Entity (CME) which are entities owned by municipal bodies, to raise money for financing projects, specifically infrastructure projects.
6. Non-convertible debentures as well as bonds are securities issued by companies / institutions promoted / owned by the Central or State governments and statutory bodies, which may or may not carry a Central/State government guarantee, public and private sector banks, All India Financial Institutions, private sector companies. These instruments may be secured against the assets of the company or unsecured and generally issued to meet the short term and long term fund requirements.
Rate of interest on such instruments would depend upon spread over corresponding government security, perceived risk, rating, tenor etc. These instruments include fixed interest security with/without put/call option, floating rate bonds, zero coupon bonds. Frequency of the interest payment could be either monthly/quarterly/half-yearly or annually.
7. Floating rate debt instruments are debt instruments issued by Central government, State government, corporates, PSUs etc. with coupon reset periodically. The periodicity of reset could be daily, monthly, quarterly, half yearly and annually or any other periodicity as may be mutually agreed between the issuer and the Fund. The fund manager will have the flexibility to invest the debt component into floating rate debt securities in order to reduce the impact of rising interest rate in the economy.
8. Repo (Repurchase Agreement) or Reverse Repo is a transaction in which two parties agree to sell and purchase the same security with an agreement to purchase or sell the same security at a mutually decided future date and price. The transaction results in collateralized borrowing or lending of funds.
When the seller sells the security with an agreement to repurchase it, it is Repo transaction whereas from the perspective of buyer who buys the security with an agreement to sell it at a later date, it is reverse repo transaction. Presently in India, G-Secs, State government securities, T-Bills and corporate debt securities are eligible for Repo/Reverse Repo. Repo transactions will be executed through CROMS or such other platform which may be permitted by SEBI or RBI, from time to time. The Scheme will also participate in repo in corporate debt securities.

MBS is an asset backed security whose cash flows are backed by the principal and interest payments of a set of mortgage loans. Such Mortgage could be either residential or commercial properties. ABS/MBS instrument reflect the undivided interest in the underlying assets and do not represent the obligation of the issuer of ABS/MBS or the originator of underlying receivables. Third category of the securitized assets can also be in the form of securitization of future fixed receivables under a service contract. Securitization often utilizes the services of Special Purpose Vehicle.
10. Pass Through Certificate (PTC) represents beneficial interest in an underlying pool of cash flows.

Interest Rate Swap - An Interest Rate Swap (IRS) is a financial contract between two parties exchanging or swapping a stream of interest payments for a “notional principal” amount on multiple occasions during a specified period. Such contracts generally involve exchange of a “fixed to floating” or “floating to fixed rate” of interest. Accordingly, on each payment date that occurs during the swap period, cash payments based on fixed/ floating and floating rates are made by the parties to one another.
b). Forward Rate Agreement - A Forward Rate Agreement (FRA) is a financial contract between two parties to exchange interest payments for a ‘notional principal’ amount on settlement date, for a specified period from start date to maturity date.

18. Corporate Debt Market Development Fund (‘CDMDF’) as a backstop facility: CDMDF is set up as a scheme of the Trust registered as an Alternative Investment Fund (‘AIF’) in accordance with the SEBI (Alternative Investment Funds) Regulations, 2012 (“AIF Regulations”). The objective of the CDMDF is to help to develop the corporate debt market by providing backstop facility to instill confidence amongst the market participants in the corporate debt/bond market during times of market dislocation and to enhance the secondary market liquidity. In times of market dislocation, CDMDF shall purchase and hold eligible corporate debt securities from the participating investors (i.e., specified debt-oriented MF schemes to begin with) and sell as markets recover. The CDMDF will thus act as a key enabler for facilitating liquidity in the corporate debt market and to respond quickly in times of market dislocation. The trigger and period for which the backstop facility will be open shall be as decided by SEBI. Thus, this backstop facility will help fund managers of the Scheme to better generate liquidity during market dislocation to help the schemes fulfill liquidity obligations under stress situation.
For detailed write up on CDMDF Framework, please refer SAI. “InvIT” or “Infrastructure Investment Trust” shall have the meaning assigned in clause (za) of sub- regulation (1) of regulation 2 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Infrastructure Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014.

Debt and Money Markets in India The Indian debt market is today one of the largest in Asia and includes securities issued by the Government (Central & State governments), public sector undertakings, other government bodies, financial institutions, banks and corporates. Government and public sector enterprises are the predominant borrowers in the markets. The major players in the Indian debt markets today are banks, financial institutions, mutual funds, insurance companies, primary dealers, trusts, pension funds, foreign portfolio investors and corporates.
The Indian debt market is the largest segment of the Indian financial markets. The debt market comprises broadly two segments, viz., Government Securities Market or G-Sec Market and Corporate Debt Market.
The latter is further classified as Market for PSU Bonds and Private Sector Bonds. The Government Securities (G-Secs + T-bills + State Government Securities) market, with market capitalization of Rs.
2,08,05,044.98 crores as on August 7, 2026 (Source: RBI), is the oldest and the largest component of the Indian debt market in terms of market capitalization, outstanding securities and trading volumes. The outstanding dated securities of the Government of India is Rs. 1,25,43,909.65 Crores as on August 7, 2026(Source - RBI). The G-Secs market plays a vital role in the Indian economy as it provides the benchmark for determining the level of interest rates in the country through the yields on the government securities which are referred to as the risk-free rate of return in any economy. Over the years, there have been new products introduced by the RBI like zero coupon bonds, floating rate bonds, inflation indexed bonds, Cash Management Bills etc. Apart from these instruments, there has been a significant demand in the STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) of the Government Securities. Current outstanding amount of such STRIPS instruments is Rs 8,85,208.23 Cr as on August 6, 2026 (Source - RBI).
State Government Securities (SGS) through which State Governments borrow to fund their fiscal deficit has also become of a prominent size with outstanding amount of Rs. 74,65,925.33 Cr as on August 7, 2026 (Source – RBI) The corporate bond market, in the sense of private corporate sector raising debt through public issuance in capital market, is only an insignificant part of the Indian debt market. However, recently there was a significant increase in corporate bond issuances, particularly since it is at a more attractive rate than bank financing. The total traded volume in corporate bonds during April 2025 – March 2026 was at Rs.
22,07,147.25 Crores vs Rs. 17,09,932.54 during April 2024 - March 2025 (Source: SEBI). A large part of the issuance in the non-Government debt market is currently on private placement basis.
The money markets in India essentially consist of the call money market (i.e. market for overnight and term money between banks and institutions), repo transactions (temporary sale with an agreement to buy back the securities at a future date at a specified price), commercial papers (CPs, short term unsecured promissory notes, generally issued by corporates), certificate of deposits (CDs, issued by banks) and Treasury Bills (issued by RBI). In a predominantly institutional market, the key money market players are banks, financial institutions, insurance companies, mutual funds, primary dealers and corporates.
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 32In money market, activity levels of the Government and non-government debt vary from time to time.
Instruments that comprise a major portion of money market activity include but not limited to:
1. Overnight Call
2. Tri-party Repo
3. Repo/Reverse Repo Agreement
4. Treasury Bills
5. Government Securities with a residual maturity of < 1 year.
6. Commercial Paper
7. Certificate of Deposit Though not strictly classified as money market instruments, PSU / PFI /Corporate paper with a residual maturity of < 1 year, are actively traded and offer a viable investment option.
The following table gives approximate yields prevailing on 7-Aug-2026 on some of the instruments. These yields are indicative and do not indicate yields that may be obtained in future as interest rates keep changing consequent to changes in macro-economic conditions and RBI policy.

Source: Bloomberg Additional disclosures for investments in securitized debt
1. How the risk profile of securitized debt fits into the risk appetite of the Scheme Securitized debt like any other fixed income asset class has its attendant risks like interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk etc. In our opinion, the primary risk with respect to securitized debt is the liquidity risk in addition to the underlying risk on the nature of the receivables. Any investment in securitized debt can fit into the risk appetite of the Scheme depending on the various factors like underlying credit risk on receivables, rating profile and the average tenor of the securitized debt.
2. Policy relating to originators based on nature of originator, track record, NPAs, losses in earlier securitized debt, etc.
Originators have been broadly categorized as follows: i. PSU Banks; ii. Private Banks; iii. NBFC’s with asset size of Rs. 5,000 crores and above; iv. NBFC’s with asset size of below Rs. 5,000 crores; and v. Corporates.
Before the assessment of the structure is undertaken, the originators/ underlying issuers are
evaluated on the following parameters: • Track record - a minimum of 5 years • Willingness to pay - credible promoters with a strong management team. • Ability to pay - strong financials Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 33• Risk appraisal capabilities - strong and well defined risk assessment processes • Business risk assessment of the originators based on the following factors:
− Outlook for the economy (domestic and global) − Outlook for the industry − Company specific factors • Standalone long term credit rating - not lower than “A+”.
In addition, a detailed review and assessment is done including interactions with the company as well as the credit rating agency.
Some of the Critical Evaluation Parameters (for pool loan and single loan securitization transactions) regarding the originator / underlying issuer which would disqualify the structure would be: • Default track record/ frequent alteration of redemption conditions / covenants;
• High leverage ratios of the ultimate borrower (for single-sell downs) - both on a standalone basis as well on a consolidated level/ group level; • Higher proportion of reschedulement of underlying assets of the pool or loan, as the case may be;
• Higher proportion of overdue assets of the pool or the underlying loan, as the case may be; • Poor reputation in market; • Insufficient track record of servicing of the pool or the loan, as the case may be;
• The degree of NPAs of the company being substantially higher than the industry trends.
3. Risk mitigation strategies for investments with each kind of originator In the case of single loan PTCs as the entire risk is on the underlying originator, the underlying originator has to be duly approved by the internal credit team. Even for the pooled PTCs before assessing the underlying loan pool of any the originator, it is also required to be an approved credit with the AMC. This is so as to have a fair understanding of the way the company conducts its business as that has a very important bearing on the quality of underlying pool of loans and also because the originator services the pool. The long term credit rating and the originators relative position in the sector that it operates in, is also considered, so as to give a holistic understanding of the strength of the originator.
Some of the key factors looked at for ABS / MBS securitized debt, apart from the credit qualities of
the originator are: • The size and reach of the originator - This is important as this helps in having a larger number of locations to choose from to create a pool of assets and thereby reduce concentration risk.
• The collection process, collection infrastructure and follow up mechanism - a strong collection process in terms of a well-defined reporting structure within the collection team, a well-defined escalation process, experienced manpower help ensure that before a loan goes into write-off, every possible measure is undertaken to prevent a delinquency.
• The quality of the management information system (MIS) - a strong MIS system helps in evaluating the quality of the loan pool as lack of extensive data hinders a comprehensive evaluation. It also helps the management of the company undertake remedial measures if they notice any sharp increase in NPA’s, frauds etc. from a particular location, state, borrower segment etc. which in turn helps in protecting the portfolio quality of the pool.
• Type of originator - the reach and systems and processes varies depending on the type of the originator and therefore it would have a bearing on the credit enhancement required.
4. The level of diversification with respect to the underlying assets, and risk mitigation measures for less diversified investments In the case of pool PTCs the level of diversification with respect to geography, loan to value, original tenure, seasoning and underlying mix of assets is not standardized and varies from originator to originator, the economic scenario and type of asset class.
Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 34Framework that will be applied while evaluating investment decision relating to a pool securitization
transaction is as under:
Commercial Micro Single Characteristics/Type Mortgage Vehicle and 2 Personal CAR Finance Sell Others of Pool Loan Construction Wheelers Loans Pools Downs Equipment Approximate Average Upto 10 Upto 3 years Upto 3 Upto 3 12 12 NA NA maturity (in Months) years years years months months Collateral margin >10% >10% >10% >10% >10% >10% NA NA (including cash, guarantees, excess interest spread, subordinate tranche) Average Loan to <95% <90% <90% <90% NA NA NA NA Value Ratio Average seasoning of 6-8 2-3 months 2-3 2-3 1-2 2-3 NA NA the Pool months months months months months Maximum single <1% <1% <1% <1% <1% <1% NA NA exposure range Average single <0.5% <0.5% <0.5% <0.5% <0.5% <0.5% NA NA exposure range % Any relaxations in the above consideration parameters can be made on the basis of the overall credit assessment of the securitized debt.
Some of the risk mitigating measures used are as under. These would vary for different asset classes and would be based on interactions with each originator as well as the credit rating agency.
A. Size of the loan B. Average original maturity of the pool C. Loan to Value Ratio D. Average seasoning of the pool E. Default rate distribution F. Geographical Distribution G. Credit enhancement facility H. Liquid facility I. Structure of the pool
5. Minimum retention period of the debt by originator prior to securitization Issuance of securitized debt is governed by the Reserve Bank of India. The minimum holding period depends on the tenor of the securitization transaction. RBI has proposed minimum holding period of between nine and twelve months for assets before they can be securitized. The Scheme will invest in securitized debts that are compliant with the laws and regulations. In case of changes prescribed by the regulator at a later date, the scheme will comply with the said minimum retention period requirements.
6. Minimum retention percentage by originator of debts to be securitized Issuance of securitized debt is governed by the Reserve Bank of India. The minimum retention requirement depends on the tenor and structure of the securitization transaction. RBI has proposed minimum retention requirement of between five and ten percent of the book value of the loans by the originator. The Fund will invest in securitized debts that are compliant with the laws and regulations. In case of changes prescribed by the regulator at a later date, the scheme will comply with the said minimum retention percentage requirements.
7. The mechanism to tackle conflict of interest when the mutual fund invests in securitized debt of an originator and the originator in turn makes investments in that particular scheme of the fund Invesco India Financial Services Debt Fund 35With respect to single loan PTCs, the AMC believes in doing a comprehensive credit appraisal of the underlying loan than the originator of the loan. If the underlying credit is found to be credit- worthy and the interest rate is attractive, irrespective of whether the instrument is a single loan PTC or NCD/ CP issued by the company, the fund management team can invest in the securitized debt.
The originator of the loan is seen more as a facilitator in the deal, earning their transaction margins.
In the case of pool PTCs, the fund management team will invest in the instrument after doing a comprehensive credit appraisal of the characteristics of the loan pool. Investment in the same will be based on the strength of the same with weightage being given to the originator.
The conflict of interest, if any, would be similar to that existing in case the investment made in the NCD or CP of the underlying company.
8. The resources and mechanism of individual risk assessment with the AMC for monitoring investment in securitized debt The AMC has credit analyst(s) analyzing credit risk on each investment. As an internal policy, fund manager can buy any instrument, only post approval of the credit from the Credit Analyst and within the limits set by the Credit Analyst. Clear segregation of independent credit analysis by Credit Analyst and subsequent investment by fund manager resolves conflict of interest. Credit Analysts also maintain separate internal notes on each individual securitized debt instrument - outlining underlying company / pool risks and mitigants for the same and balancing the same with resultant higher yields.
The credit analyst also monitors the performance of the company/pool and the credit rating assigned to the underlying assets as also the credit rating of originator.
The following disclosure may also be given:
Wherever the Scheme portfolio is disclosed, the AMC will give a comprehensive disclosure of securitized debt instruments held. This would include the originator and underlying asset exposure by percentage, e.g.
percentage of two wheeler loans in the pool, percentage of commercial vehicle loans in the pool etc.

Liquidity risk management practices adopted by the AMC are as under:
Liquidity Management Brief Des cription Practice followed by AMC To ol Potential Risk The maximum risk that a Potential Risk Class Matrix Matrix (PRC) scheme will run as per design The Scheme has been classified under B- II cell of PRC & Risk-o- and a measurement of that Matrix in order to determine the maximum risk that a meter risk on a regular basis. fund manager can take in the Scheme. PRC Matrix Remedial measures in place consists of parameters based on maximum interest rate in case any of the design risk (measured by Macaulay Duration of the Scheme) boundaries are breached. and maximum credit risk (measured by Credit Risk Value of the Scheme). The PRC Cell of the Scheme is also included in the type of the Scheme. AMC monitors PRC of the Scheme regularly to ensure that the Scheme does not exceed maximum risk depicted by PRC. In case of any breach, remedial measures will be taken in accordance with the requirements of SEBI Circulars.
Risk-o-meter Risk-o-meter in product label of the Scheme dynamically captures the actual risk taken by fund manager and consists of six levels of risk from low risk to very high risk.
