Investors generally consider equities as a risky asset class. And this often makes them stick to large-cap companies within this asset class as they are seen less volatile compared to their mid- or small-cap peers.

While small-caps are generally considered riskier than large-caps, they also come with the potential of delivering returns over the long-term.

Let us consider Kotak Smallcap Fund.
