Franklin Templeton Sees SIP Flows Rise in March, Deploys Cash Amid Market Correction

• Franklin Templeton (FT) witnessed higher Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) flows in March despite investor sentiment dented by the West Asia conflict.
• FT is actively deploying capital into cheaper stocks, taking advantage of market dips rather than holding cash.
• Industry-wide SIP flows are expected to decline, but FT's specific schemes saw an increase.
• The firm believes market corrections due to crises often lead to sharp recoveries, benefiting investors who enter at lower levels.
• FT launched 'Sapphie Equity Long-Short SIF' to capitalize on volatile market conditions, with the NFO open from April 10-24.
