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..

ICICI Prudential Dynamic Plan Invest Online

The fund sticks to its mandate to adapt to the dynamic nature of the market by shuttling between debt and equity. It takes aggressive asset calls in equity when the market surges by investing in quality mid-cap stocks. At the same time, it adopts a defensive strategy by investing in debt and cash when markets get overvalued, making it a good long-term choice.     For further information contact Prajna Capital on 94 8300 8300 by leaving a missed call     Leave a missed Call on 94 8300 8300   Leave your comment with mail ID and we will ...

  ING Dividend Yield's small assets enable the fund manager to churn in impressive returns… Strategy The aim of the fund is to invest in stocks which offer a high dividend yield. This fund deploys a value based strategy which aims to gain from investing in fundamentally strong and free cash flow generating businesses.

About CRISIL IPO Grading

CRISIL IPO (Initial Public Offering) Grading is an opinion on the fundamentals of the graded issue that reflects CRISIL's independence and expertise. This opinion is expressed as a relative assessment in relation to other listed equity securities in India. The assessment is based on a grading exercise carried out by industry specialists from CRISIL Research. A CRISIL IPO Grade 5/5 indicates strong fundamentals and a CRISIL IPO Grade 1/5 indicates poor fundamentals. CRISIL IPO Grading reflects its assessment of the graded company's equity fundamentals as distinct from an assessment of debt fundamentals. A CRISIL IPO Grade should not be construed to mean a comment on the price of the graded security nor is it a recommendation to invest or not to invest in the graded security. However, this grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy / sell or hold the graded instrument, or a comm...

Lump Sum or SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund Online     You have a lump sum in hand and you wish to invest in equity funds. However, you have heard a lot of talk about investing in equity funds through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) because they help average costs, ensure you do not ill-time the market, and help you invest in small sums, besides giving you many other advantages. So, should you invest the money you have in hand in one go, or let it remain in your bank account and then do an SIP? There is no harm in investing a lump sum amount. For all you know, compounding, over the long term, could work better with lump sum. However, make sure you fulfill all of these three criteria if you want to invest in one go. Else, SIP is the way to go. #1: You invest for the long term According to past data, ideally, if you have a time frame of 12 years or more, you can consider lump sum investing (provided you satisfy the other two conditions that follow). So, what is the sanctity behind 12 years? Is it because only...

Capital Protection Oriented Funds

To address this concern, asset management companies have launched Capital Protection Oriented Funds (CPOFs). What are CPOFs? CPOFs are generally three to five-year, closed-ended funds where 70-80% of the portfolio is invested in fixed income securities, which mature on or before the scheme's tenure. The investment in fixed income securities grows to 100% at the end of the tenure, providing the investor with capital protection. The remaining portion (20-30%) is used to take exposure to equity, which provides the upside. Exposure to equities is either by directly buying equity stocks (plain vanilla CPOFs) or by b...
