I don’t have specific answer for first global but I think Ramdev A (Motilal Oswal) seems more vocal than SS.
I had Motilal PMS which is down by 20%. The Hugh downside is contributed by their expenses. Expense is No.2 worries you need to address.
No. 1 worry is their outdated mindset. “Buy right, sit tight” you need to understand to wake and walk up if you are sitting on shit.
e.g. Quess co: purchase price ~925. That’s also ok. But they hold till it reached below 165. What’s logic to hold shit till -80%?.
So don’t go on commentary, prefer to invest by self, even you lose, you will at least learn. If you can’t than - get idea of expenses and see the efforts they are putting in PMS. Efforts is more imp than past record or any other thing - my pov. Past record is distorted.
The small companies like head by Samit vartak, One small cap from south indian guy (Forgot the name) PMS - explore alone with FG if required.
