What is Mutual funds?





Hi guys,
We are talking about mutual funds. Use your money to grow your money.
mutual fund is a professionally managed investment plan that pools money from many investors to purchase securities.These investors may be retail or institutional in nature.It is a trust that collects money from a number of investors who share a common investment objective. Then, it invests the money in equities, bonds, money market instruments and/or other securities.
A Mutual Fund is one of the most viable investment options for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.
The collective investment is distributed proportionately amongst the investors after deducting certain expenses by calculating a schemes Net asset value or NAV.
Investing is all about taking calculated risks and managing the same, not avoiding the risks altogether.

Benefit:-

  • Diversification-  Diversification involves the mixing of different types of investments within a portfolio and is used to manage risk.
  • Economies of scale - the easiest way to understand economies of scale is of thinking of volume discount.
