The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) issued this circular to mandate standardized formats for Mutual Funds applying to establish Specialized Investment Funds (SIFs) and for their Investment Strategy Information Documents (ISID). The document prescribes specific application structures in Annexure I, detailing eligibility criteria such as Asset Under Management thresholds and key personnel requirements, while Annexure II defines the mandatory disclosure layout for the ISID. These requirements aim to ensure uniformity in application processing and provide investors with clear, consistent information regarding the risks and characteristics of SIF offerings.
