    What is a mutual fund?

    5/40

    A mutual fund pools the money of people with similar investment goals.

    The money in turn is invested in various securities depending on the

    objectives of the mutual fund scheme. The profits (or loss) from such

    investments are shared among investors in proportion to their

    investments. Thus, depending on your investment horizon, risk tolerance

    and required rate of return, you can choose from mutual fund schemes

    that are:

    1. Fixed income oriented, i.e. those that do not invest in shares, but

    focus on fixed income instruments

    2. Equity oriented i.e. those that invest predominantly in shares

    3. Hybrid i.e. invest in a combination of equity and fixed income

    instruments

    A mutual fund scheme normally issue units at Rs.10 during the initial

    offer. Thereafter, the profits (or loss) on your investment is reflected in

    the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the mutual fund scheme. The NAV is the

    actual value of a unit of a scheme on a given day. Open end schemes

    allow you to buy fresh units or sell your existing units back to the fund

    on any working day at a NAV based price.

    What are the types of mutual funds?

    Mutual funds can be classified based on their objectives as:

    Sector Equity Schemes: These schemes invest in shares of

    companies in a specific sector.

    Diversified Equity Schemes:These schemes invest in shares of

    companies across different sectors of the economy.

    Hybrid Schemes: These schemes invest in a mix of shares and

    fixed income instruments.

    Income Schemes: These schemes invest in fixed income

    instruments such as bonds issued by corporate and financial

    institutions, and government securities.

    Liquid/Money Market Schemes:These schemes invest in short-

    term instruments such as certificate of deposits, treasury bills and

    short-term bonds.

    How is Mutual Fund Structured?

    A mutual fund is set up as a trust or trustee company and may be

    sponsored by individuals or corporate.

    SEBI has prescribed the duties and responsibilities of the trustees/board

    of directors of the trustee company, which includes appointing an Asset

    Management Company (AMC) to manage the assets of the various

    schemes floated by it. The assets of the various schemes are held in

    custody of a SEBI approved custodian and all purchases/sales of

    securities by the AMC are routed through the custodian. All these

    entities - the fund, AMC, custodian etc. are governed by SEBI (Mutual

    Funds) Regulations and each of them have separate internal and

    external auditors, in addition to special SEBI inspections, to ensure that

    they work in line with SEBI Regulations and in the best interest of

    investors.

    What are the benefits of investing in mutual funds?

    As opposed to investing directly in different asset classes, accessing

    them through a mutual fund has several advantages:

    Professional Management:

    Your money is managed by professionals who have the experience and

    resources to thoroughly analyze the economy and financial markets, and

    spot good opportunities.

    Diversification:

    With smaller amounts, you can achieve a higher degree of diversification

    and reduce your risk.

    Liquidity and Convenience:

    Investing and getting back your money is easy. Also, there is very little

    paper work, and it is very easy to track and monitor your investments.

    Tax Benefits:

    Some mutual fund schemes offer you tax rebates under Section 88. In

    addition, your returns from mutual funds (dividends and capital

    appreciation) are also eligible for favorable tax treatment.

    competing economies.

    demand for money) influences securities process. In case of fixed

    income securities, the impact is direct. If interest rate rises, price falls

    and vice versa. Fall in interest rate may benefit share prices because

    cost of funds to companies may move down, hence their profit may go

    up.

    amount obligations.

    import export policy etc.

    peculiar to that industry.

    certain companies may affect prices of shares of that company. This is

    also known as risk of obsolescence.

    restriction imposed on them by the authorities for protection of the

    environment.

    8. EVENT RISK

    Some times an event such as an accident or an earthquake may

    SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN

    This is an investment technique where you deposit a fixed, small amount

    regularly into the mutual fund scheme ( every month or quarter as per

    your convenience) at the prevailing NAV ( net assets value ), subject to

    applicable load.

    A systematic investment plan offers two major benefits to an investor. It

    avoids lump sum investment at one point of time in a scenario of falling

    prices; it reduces your overall cost of acquisition by a process of rupee

    cost averaging. This means that at lower prices you end up getting more

    units for the same investment.
