Motilal Oswal Arbitrage Fund
The fund is positioned as a classic arbitrage strategy capturing near-term convergence spreads, evidenced by its massive net receivables position and heavy allocation to certificate of deposit ladders maturing across Q3-Q4 2026. The significant portfolio churn—128 new entries and 88 exits—reflects the manager actively harvesting arbitrage opportunities while maintaining defensive positioning through liquidity instruments, signaling confidence in identifying pockets of mispricings while managing redemption risk prudently.
