Risks associated with small cap companies:

Investment in small cap companies is based on the premise that these companies have the ability to increase their earnings at a faster pace as compared to large cap and mid cap companies and grow into larger, more valuable companies. However, as with all equity investments, there is a risk that such companies may not achieve their expected earnings results, or there could be an unexpected change in the market, both of which may adversely affect investment results. Historically, it has been observed that as you go down the capitalization spectrum i.e., from large cap stocks to mid cap stocks and beyond, there are higher risks in terms of volatility and market liquidity. Scheme invests in small cap companies and hence is exposed to associated risks.

Large-caps are defined as top 100 stocks on market capitalization, mid caps as 101-250 , small caps as 251 and above.

For scheme specific risk factors, asset allocation details, load structure, scheme expense details, investment objective, and more details, please read the Scheme Information Document and Key Information Memorandum of the scheme available at the Investor Service Centers of the AMC and also available on www.dspim.com.
