New passive NFO launches widen thematic exposure options for investors this November

New passive fund launches from Axis and Kotak expand access to thematic and arbitrage linked structures, helping investors gain structured exposure without active strategy risk during market consolidation.
Passive and rule based investment options continue to expand as multiple fund houses opened subscription windows for new schemes in November. Axis Income Plus Arbitrage Passive FOF and Kotak Nifty Chemicals ETF were part of the new fund offer basket, both targeting diversified factor coverage and improved sector based distribution outcomes compared to active high churn equity selection models. Market distributors expect these NFOs to attract inflows from investor segments seeking disciplined participation without active fund manager intervention as broader markets enter a consolidation build phase heading into year end.
