Maximize your Investments Returns

 

Making money is not enough if you have no idea how to invest it wisely. A smart man always makes sure to be fully prepared for future financial needs and at every step and finds out a way to double his hard earned money. However, the biggest mystery is how and where to invest? Your financial planning will only be successful if you have bit of knowledge about investment planning options. So, if you are seeking some advice to get the best returns on your investment, your search ends here.

Before exploring the options available in the market for financial planning, let's talk about the types of investment plans. Basically, these are of two types-

  1. ULIP (Unit Linked Investment Planning) – Here, your premium is invested in various kinds of funds such as stocks, shares, etc and you receive money on the basis of the performance of these funds. Thus, it is volatile in nature.
  2. Traditional Investment- It ensures you receive the promised return amount after the maturity and thus is a low-risk investment plan.

Options Available For Financial Planning

  • Child Plan– When it comes to planning for a stable future, people should never ignore child insurance. This plan is one of the best investments to ensure that your child's needs (education, wedding etc) can be fulfilled.
  • Retirement Plan– You earn all your life in a hope to enjoy your later years in peace and joy. But, how's that possible if you have no money? Thus, investing for your retirement can give you benefits and a strong financial support to rely on.
  • Guaranteed Return Plan– In the market, there are many plans that give you guaranteed return after specified period. It is best for people who can't afford to take high risk and want a stable source of income.
  • High Potential Plan– If you have money and love to live on the edge, this investment plan is the one for you. It is volatile in nature and gives a scope of high return, but only if you are ready to take risks. Here, your premiums are invested in funds and the return depends on the performance of the funds.

Beside these, one can also invest in gold or fixed deposit in bank. These investments can be short-term as well as long-term depending how exactly a person invests.

Risk Involved in Investment Plans

Investment also brings risk along with it. If you invest, be sure, you might have to face some trouble. Few of these risks are as follows-

  • Unstable market- One can never predict the future. Thus, if the market will go down so will your investment with high chance of you losing your money.
  • Inflation- Sometimes due to inflation you might not get as much return as you expected. If the inflation rises the value of currency decreases.
  • No benefit if policy collapse- If the policy collapse before the maturity period, you might not get any returns and might face loss.

How to Select the Investment Plan?

There are so many investment plans available in the market such that it becomes difficult to choose which one is right for you. Every plan has its own pros and cons and will suit people depending on their requirements. So before you select any plan, ask these questions-

  • What are your final goals? Do you want to invest for your post retirement days or you want to secure for your child or simply want to double your money?
  • Do you want to invest for short-term or for long-term? If you have short term goals go for term plans and if your requirement is for a long period, then go for 10-30 year plans.
  • How much risk you can afford? If you have money or are young, go for ULIP plans as they give high-return, but being volatile in nature also involves high risk. Similarly, if you are old or financially weak, go for conventional plans as low-risk is involved with stable return.

Anybody can invest, but what makes a successful investor different from the not so successful one is how wisely he/she invests. Investment is a long term aspect and careful considerations should be made before choosing nay mode of investment as it will have a direct effect on your finances.

Mutual Fund Review: Religare Tax Plan

Tax Plan is one of the better performing schemes from Religare Asset Management. Existing investors can redeem their investment after three years. But given the scheme's performance, they can continue to stay invested   Given the mandated lock-in period of three years, tax saving schemes give the fund manager the leeway to invest in ideas that may take time to nurture. Religare Tax Plan's investment ideas revolve around 'High Growth', which the fund manager has aimed to achieve by digging out promising stories/businesses in the mid-cap segment. Within the space, consumer staples has been the centre of attention for the last couple of years and can be seen as one of the key reasons for the scheme's outperformance as compared to the broader market. It has, however, tweaked its focus and reduced exposure in midcaps as they were commanding a high premium. The strategy seems to have worked as it returned a 22% gain last year. Religare Tax Plan has outperformed BSE 100...

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

 ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...

Mutual Funds: Past Performance is not just everything

Many a times your agent / distributor / relationship manager tries to push you some mutual fund schemes by enticing you with a typical sales pitch…"Sir, this scheme has generated 20% returns in the past one year." And this sales pitch often gets louder when the market conditions have been favourable. Some of the agents / distributors / relationship managers have another unique way of luring you. They say, "Sir / madam this scheme has been awarded the best scheme award in the past by a leading business channel"... And hearing all these sales talks you investors very often get attracted and sign a cheque in favour of the respective scheme.   But please ask yourself do you hear these sales talks when the capital markets turn turbulent? Why is it so that your agent / distributor / relationship manager avoids talking to you during turbulent times of the capital markets and doesn't boast about returns generated by the respective funds or awards being conferred on t...

Alpha - The relative performance

Alpha, the net performance of a component against the benchmark is an overlooked tool   Absolutely speaking, any bounce back now on markets should be the last for the year. We offcourse can be wrong and prefer to be judged on alpha (relative performance) as relative accountability is fine with us. According to Alpha India, the top outperformers in the weeks ahead should be Reliance Communications, Reliance Infrastructure, SBI, HDFC, ONGC, Larsen, Jaiprakash Associates, Maruti, Bharti and DLF. On the short side (reduce side), we have Ranbaxy, ACC, Sail, Tata Steel, Wipro, Tata Motors, Sun Pharma, TCS, M&M and Infosys.   Performance like everything follows the 80-20 rule, 80 per cent of your gains are going to come from 20 per cent of your portfolio. So why not give it a thought? The importance of alpha If alpha was so important, then why don ' t newspapers and websites publish it? Why alpha gets featured annually but not as intraday or daily event? Why don ' t we c...
