Have you ever thought about who makes a profit when you buy a car? There are no prizes for guessing; it is the car manufacturing company. However, this answer is partially true. It is not only the car manufacturer but also many other allied companies, such as battery producers, automotive parts manufacturers, and vendors who supply vehicle components, that are the beneficiary of auto sales. The same is the case when you buy a house. Many of them are unknown names. These are small companies with high growth potential. The number here is extensive, and most of them are under-researched, and finding gems among them is difficult for an ordinary investor. In this scenario, small-cap funds come handy to exploit the growth potential of small companies.
