SBI Funds Management Limited
PROSPECTUS · filed 17 Jul 2026
SBI Funds Management Limited is an asset management company whose revenues and profitability are directly linked to quarterly average assets under management (QAAUM) and the mix of fee-generating products. The company faces high-severity risks regarding market downturns, large-scale redemptions, and shifts in product mix that could significantly impact financial performance. Additionally, the company is exposed to liquidity risks in debt schemes and has a low-severity risk regarding discontinuance rates for its new daily SIP facility.
What stands out
Risk factor. A material decline in quarterly average assets under management (QAAUM) due to market movements, redemptions, or other factors could significantly impact financial performance, as revenues and profitability are directly linked to QAAUM.
Risk factor. A shift in QAAUM mix from higher-fee products (such as equity-oriented or actively managed schemes) to lower-fee products (such as debt-oriented or passive schemes) would result in a decline in weighted average management fee realization and reduce revenue and profitability, even without any decline
Risk factor. Large-scale redemptions, particularly by institutional investors or high-net-worth individuals, could create a compounding effect where redemptions force schemes to sell securities at unfavourable prices, resulting in further performance deterioration and additional redemptions.
Risk factor. A market downturn can simultaneously drive mark-to-market depreciation of scheme portfolios and higher redemptions and SIP discontinuance rates, which compound each other and can cause a disproportionately large decline in AUM and management fee income.

Risks the company discloses
A material decline in quarterly average assets under management (QAAUM) due to market movements, redemptions, or other factors could significantly impact financial performance, as revenues and profitability are directly linked to QAAUM.(Asset Management)
A shift in QAAUM mix from higher-fee products (such as equity-oriented or actively managed schemes) to lower-fee products (such as debt-oriented or passive schemes) would result in a decline in weighted average management fee realization and reduce revenue and profitability, even without any decline in absolute QAAUM levels.(Asset Management)
Large-scale redemptions, particularly by institutional investors or high-net-worth individuals, could create a compounding effect where redemptions force schemes to sell securities at unfavourable prices, resulting in further performance deterioration and additional redemptions.(Asset Management)
A market downturn can simultaneously drive mark-to-market depreciation of scheme portfolios and higher redemptions and SIP discontinuance rates, which compound each other and can cause a disproportionately large decline in AUM and management fee income.(Asset Management)
SIP discontinuance rates tend to increase during periods of prolonged market underperformance, particularly among retail and first-time investors, reducing the predictability and recurring nature of inflows.(Asset Management)
Debt and debt-hybrid schemes are particularly exposed to liquidity risk, that is, the risk that redemption requests cannot be met in a timely manner because the scheme's holdings cannot be liquidated at reasonable prices within the required timeframe.(Asset Management)
A significant portion of our operating expenses are relatively fixed in the short to medium term, including employee costs, technology infrastructure, regulatory compliance costs, and distribution support, which means any material decline in QAAUM-linked revenues could disproportionately impact profitability.(Asset Management)
The Jan Nivesh SIP facility launched in February 2025, which allows daily investments starting at ₹250, may experience higher discontinuation rates among first-time investors due to the low-ticket size and daily frequency, which could adversely affect SIP persistency metrics and recurring inflows.(Asset Management)
