Radhika Gupta, MD and CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund said, “Kuch aisa karke dikha, khud khush ho jaye khuda…” after her fund house won the Asset Manager of the Year award at the Morningstar awards for the second consecutive year, marking a significant milestone for the AMC.
Expressing her excitement, Gupta said she was thrilled to lift the asset manager of the year trophy once again, describing it as a recognition of consistency in performance. She credited the achievement to the investment team’s disciplined approach in everything they do, everyday they do, across asset classes, especially in a challenging environment shaped by tariffs, market volatility, and constant market narratives.

She posted on social media platform X, “कुछ ऐसा करके दिखा, खुद खुश हो जाए खुदा…Thrilled to lift the Morningstar Asset Manager of the Year trophy. For the second year in a row. Thank you to our investment team who do what they do, every day, across asset classes, in a world of tariffs, turbulence and Twitter takes. To the millions of investors and thousands of partners we have, thank you for trusting us with your money and your aspirations. And finally, thank you to @in_morningstar. In a world of the short term, you reward consistency. It makes us want to play the long game. To decadal, whiskey-like compounding.”
Gupta also thanked millions of investors and thousands of partners for placing their trust in the fund house, noting that managing investor money comes with the responsibility of protecting and growing their aspirations.
She further acknowledged Morningstar for recognising consistency in an industry often driven by short-term performance metrics, and that this motivates the fund house to continue focusing on long-term wealth creation.
Reiterating her investment philosophy, Gupta described the approach was centred around “decadal, whiskey-like compounding,” underlining the importance of patience, discipline, and consistency in building sustainable returns.
In Morningstar Awards for Investing Excellence in 2025, apart from receiving best asset manager of the year, Edelweiss Mutual Fund’s mid cap and small cap funds had also won the best fund award in their respective categories.
For the previous year's victory, Gupta posted on social media, “यह कहाँ आ गए हम, यूँ ही साथ साथ चलते. Delighted to share that Edelweiss Mutual Fund won the Asset Manager of Year at the Morningstar Awards for Investing Excellence. We also won the best Mid/Smallcap Fund of the Year.”
