What are the benefits of investing in a mutual fund?

The following are the various asset classes available to an investor:

Diversification
Mutual funds provide the retail investor with the opportunity to invest in varied investment schemes at relatively lower amount. Diversification allows investors to spread their portfolio across sectors and industries, in turn reducing the overall risk on their portfolio.

Professional Management
Mutual funds provide the benefits of having professional management of money by experts.
It is ideal for retail investors who do not have time or know-how about the markets to invest in them.

Low Transaction Cost
Due to economies of scale (benefit of larger volumes), mutual funds pay lower transaction costs. The benefits are passed on to a mutual fund investor, which may not be enjoyed by an individual who enters the market directly.

Liquidity
An investor may not be able to sell some of the shares held by him very easily and quickly whereas mutual fund units can always be redeemed either on every business day in the case of open-ended schemes or during specific intervals as outlined by the fund in case of close-ended schemes.

Transparency
Funds provide investors with updated information pertaining to the markets and schemes through fact-sheets, offer documents, annual reports etc.

Flexibility
Investors benefit from the convenience and flexibility offered by mutual funds to invest in a wide range of schemes. The option of systematic (at regular intervals) investment and withdrawal is also offered to investors in most open-ended schemes.

Strict Regulation
The Mutual Fund industry in India is well-regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). All funds are registered with SEBI and complete transparency is enforced..

How much to invest in gold ?

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India) Let your motivation dictate the share of the yellow metal in your portfolio Enough has been said and written about gold as an investment option. The latest argument is that the craze for gold among Indian households is endangering our country's balance of payments. The policymakers are busy trying to find ways of discouraging investment in gold, but if households keep the common good in mind, they would be paying the market price for gas cylinders as they do for, say, their mobile phone bills. After all, private decisions are driven by private motives. So, how should a household look at gold from its own perspective? Gold is primarily acquired for its merit as a store of value. Even if the worst crisis hits a family, the gold that it holds could be put to use anywhere in th...

Investment Strategy - What is Sector Rotation Theory?

Buy Gold Mutual Funds Invest Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)   The economy goes through cycles : it expands for a few years and then contracts. Study of historical data suggests that different sectors tend to perform well on the stock markets during different stages of the economic cycle. While history never repeats itself exactly, some broad patterns tend to recur. Investors can take advantage of the sector rotation theory to move their money from those sectors that have seen their best times to those that are likely to do well in future.   The person who developed the sector rotation theory is Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at Standard & Poor's. He developed this theory by studying data on economic cycles going as far back as 1854 provided by the National Bureau of Economic Research ( NBER ) of the US.   When trying to correlate stock-market perfor...
