Portfolio Turnover: Portfolio Turnover is a term used to measure the volume of trading that occurs in a Scheme's portfolio during a given time period. The scheme being an open-ended scheme, it is expected that there would be frequent subscriptions and redemptions.

The Scheme has no specific target relating to portfolio turnover.

The Scheme shall invest in the Units of overseas equity oriented mutual fund schemes based on Quality Theme and/or ETFs based on Quality Theme. The risk factors of the underlying schemes will be relevant and must be treated as risk factors of Kotak Quality Overseas Equity Omni FOF.

• Since the Scheme proposes to invest in underlying schemes, the Scheme's performance will depend upon the performance of the underlying schemes and any significant underperformance in even one of the underlying schemes may adversely affect the performance of the Scheme.

• Any change in the investment policies or the fundamental attributes of the underlying schemes may affect the performance of the Scheme. • The investors of the Scheme shall bear the recurring expenses of the Scheme in addition to the expenses of the underlying schemes.

Since the incidence of exit loads on investments made by the Scheme in Underlying Schemes of the Fund is based on first-in, first-out principle, it is anticipated that the impact of such exit loads/redemption charges could be minimal during the normal course of functioning of the Scheme.

• In the event of receipt of an inordinately large number of redemption requests and inability of the Underlying Scheme(s) to generate enough liquidity because of market conditions, there may be delays in redemption of units.

3. Focused Investment Risk: the Fund invests its assets in the securities of a limited number of issuers, and a decline in the market price of a particular security held by the Fund may affect the Fund's performance more than if the Fund invested in the securities of a larger number of issuers.

• Risks associated with Debt / Money Markets (i.e. Markets in which Interest bearing Securities or Discounted Instruments are traded) • Risk associated with investment in Government securities and Tri-Party Repo on Government securities or treasury bills • Risk associated with investing in Units of Mutual Fund Schemes • Risk Factors Associated with investing in Foreign Securities • Risk associated with Investing in Exchange Traded funds - Tracking Error/difference Risk For details on risk factors and risk mitigation measures, please refer SID.
