Retail Investors Cling to Risky MFs Even as HNIs Trim Exposure

Business Standard

|

August 21, 2025

Retail investors and high net-worth individual (HNI) investors reacted differently to the equity market volatility over the past nine months, going by their mutual fund (MF) investment pattern.

- ABHISHEK KUMAR

In the September 2024-June 2025 period, while retail investors continued with high-risk bets, HNI portfolios veered towards safer options in MFs.

According to data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (Amfi), retail investors' share in the total assets under management (AUM) of smallcap funds rose from 63.4 per cent in September 2024 to 65.2 per cent in June 2025.

In the same period, HNI investors' share declined from 32.2 per cent to 30.5 per cent.

A similar story played out in the two other high-risk categories—midcap and sectoral & thematic. The largecap and large & midcap categories witnessed a reverse trend—rise in HNI ownership and a decline in retail share.
