Introduction
In terms of ease with which investors can enter and exit funds, mutual funds are broadly divided into two classes:
- Open-ended funds: Investors can buy and sell the units from the fund, at any point of time.
- Close-ended funds: These funds raise money from investors only once. Therefore, after the offer period, fresh investments can not be made into the fund. If the fund is listed on a stocks exchange the units can be traded like stocks (E.g., Morgan Stanley Growth Fund). Recently, most of the New Fund Offers of close-ended funds provided liquidity window on a periodic basis such as monthly or weekly. Redemption of units can be made during specified intervals. Therefore, such funds have relatively low liquidity.
There are various classes of mutual funds depending upon the nature of investments. Here are three broad classes from which one can choose to invest, depending upon his risk-return profile.
- Equity funds
- Balanced funds
- Debt funds
Equity funds
These funds invest in equities and equity related instruments. With fluctuating share prices, such funds show volatile performance, even losses. However, short term fluctuations in the market, generally smoothens out in the long term, thereby offering higher returns at relatively lower volatility. At the same time, such funds can yield great capital appreciation as, historically, equities have outperformed all asset classes in the long term. Hence, investment in equity funds should be considered for a period of at least 3-5 years.
Fund classification based on capitalisation focus :
There are also funds based on capitalisation which invest in companies falling within a certain segment of market capitalization. Based on capitalization, equity funds can be placed on the risk return grid as shown below:
Balanced funds
Their investment portfolio includes both debt and equity. As a result, on the risk-return ladder, they fall between equity and debt funds. Balanced funds are the ideal mutual funds vehicle for investors who prefer spreading their risk across various instruments. Following are balanced funds classes:
- Debt-oriented funds
- Equity-oriented funds
