Fidelity MF to pay bonus to loyal investors

Eligible investors will receive two free units at present NAV for 500 units of fund

 
In an effort to keep investors locked in for a longer duration in its scheme, Fidelity Mutual Fund has announced a loyalty premium to those who have remained invested in Fidelity Equity Fund since its inception.

The eligible investors will receive two free units at present net asset value (NAV) for every 500 units of Fidelity Equity Fund held since inception. The units will be added to investors' portfolio on May 18.

Fidelity Equity Fund was the first fund of FIL Fund Management, which opened for subscription in May 2005. Since inception, the fund has given an annualised return of 25.23 per cent. The scheme had Rs 2,871 crore asset under management as on April 30.

Ashu Suyash, MD and country head of Fidelity International, said: "We are delighted to offer this loyalty premium. We hope this will encourage more customers to stay invested in our equity funds in their own best interest."

The mutual fund industry in India suffers from investors' short-term investment patterns. The average investment period in an equity fund in India is 18 months. According to recent Amfi (Association of Mutual Funds in India) data, close to 40 per cent of retail investors pull out their money from equity funds in less than two years. In the high net worth individual category, only 48 per cent investors remain invested in equity funds for more than two years.

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...

Look at what you want. You probably want to hire a financial planner to get a blueprint for your life ahead and want to know how to achieve your goals. For creating a tailor-made financial plan, our experience is that it takes 25-30 man-hours in all. Taking an average of Rs 500 per hour for hiring the services of a qualified financial planner like one who has a CFP(CM) certificate, the fee would come to Rs 12,500 to Rs 15,000.
