There are many factors to consider before making an investment in a mutual fund scheme, and that’s understandable. The category of scheme, the fund house’s repute, the state of the economy as a whole, and the scheme’s track record of returns are just a few of the aspects that they take into account.

The ICICI Prudential Multi Asset Fund has been around for 21 years, and we provide a brief history of the fund here. With an AUM of 24,060 crore, the plan has roughly 57% of the market share of the multi asset allocation category.
