MUTUAL FUNDS

FOR LONG-TERM INVESTMENT

SARASIJ MAJUMDER

A mutual fund is an  investment vehicle that collects & pools money from a number of investors and invests the same in equities, bonds, government securities, money market instruments, etc. The money collected in mutual fund scheme is invested by professional fund managers in stocks and bonds etc.

For this, they charge a fees, known as EXPENSE RATIO.

You can invest in three ways, as follows:-

1.0 Through a BROKER, or a registered organizations like Bank, Fund House (e.g. NIPPON), Financial instate like BAJAJ CAPITAL etc.

2.0 You can directly open an account with the fund House, and invest directly, and,

3.0 In Exchange traded fund, commonly known as ETF,  you can invest through a DEMAT account.

In option 1, Expense Ratio will be highest, as you will additionally pay BROKERAGE also.

In option 3, you can buy/sell easily, and instantly. It is market driven.

Most mutual funds fall into one of four main categories – money market funds, bond funds, stock funds, and target date funds. Each type has different features, risks, and rewards.

You can invest using your SMART PHONE, where we have the option of downloading Applications of all large Fund Houses.

There are also some companies who allow to use their PLATFORMs for investment, and you can keep track of your investment, once you open an account with them. Some of them have Free, as well as paid versions.

I will recommend younger generations only to invest in  NIFTY 50 INDEX Fund, if he is a passive investor, investment through SIP mode.

For an ACTIVE INVESTOR—Direct Investment in Equity is recommended.

I share you today a small shortlisted table of GOOD LARGE CAP EQUITY FUNDS,  for your review.
