Segregated Portfolio: The portfolio comprising of debt and money
market instruments, which might be affected by a credit event and
shall also include the unrated debt or money market instruments
affected by actual default.
The AMC / Trustee shall decide on creation of segregated portfolio
of the Scheme in case of a credit event/actual default at issuer level,
subject to SEBI Regulations and other prevailing guidelines if any.
Accordingly, Investor holding units of segregated portfolio may not
able to liquidate their holding till the time recovery of money from

realise any value. Further, 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.

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 the 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.
Derivative products are specialized instruments that require investment
techniques and risk analysis different from those associated with stocks. The use
of a derivative requires an understanding not only of the underlying instrument
but 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. There is a possibility that a loss may be sustained by the
portfolio as a result of the failure of another party (usually referred to as the
“counterparty”) to comply with the terms of the derivatives contract. Other risks
in using derivatives include the risk of mispricing or improper valuation of
derivatives and the inability of derivatives 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. 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.
Disclosure relating to extent and manner of participation in derivatives
to be provided
The Scheme may take exposure to equity derivatives of the index itself or its
constituent stocks may be undertaken when equity shares are unavailable,
insufficient or for rebalancing in case of corporate actions for a temporary
period. Other than for above purposes, the Scheme will not invest in Equity
Derivatives. These investments would be for a short period of time i.e. 7 days.
Exposure towards Equity Derivatives instruments shall not exceed 20% of the
net assets of the Scheme. If the exposure falls outside the above mentioned asset
allocation pattern, the portfolio to be rebalanced by AMC within 7 days from
the date of said deviation. The Fund shall not write options or purchase
instruments with embedded written options. When constituent’s securities of
Draft SID of Motilal Oswal Nifty Energy ETF
29underlying Index are available again, derivative positions in these securities
would be unwound.
Investments Limitations and Restrictions in Derivatives
In accordance with Clause 12.25 of SEBI Master Circular SEBI/HO/IMD/IMD-
PoD-1/P/CIR/2024/90 dated June 27, 2024, the following investment
restrictions shall apply with respect to investment in Derivatives:
1. The cumulative gross exposure through equity, debt and derivative positions
will not exceed 100 % of the net assets of the scheme. However, cash or
cash equivalents with residual maturity of less than 91 days shall be treated
as not creating any exposure.
2. The Scheme shall not write options or purchase instruments with embedded
written options.
3. The total exposure related to option premium paid shall not exceed 20% of
the net assets of the scheme.
4. Exposure due to hedging positions may not be included in the above
