Advantages of Investing in Mutual Funds - Part 01




Mutual Funds are professionally managed collective investment vehicles that help small investors to participate in capital market.  The minimum investment required by one to participate in the mutual fund is at a minimum amount of Rs.1000/-. 


Benefits of investing in mutual funds are as follows: 


1. Potential of decent returns: Since the Mutual Funds are based on capital markets or designed to imitate the underlying market structure, there are very high chances that the fund returns are better versus the actual index movement. 


2. Low charge structure and Low entry level :  With a low entry level point(Rs.1000) a small/retail investor can enter in the market  getting ownership of Blue Chip stocks which would otherwise not be possible for him in direct equity.  Also, with the services of highly qualified people, the percentage of administration costs levied by fund houses is very nominal.


3. Liquidity: In case of any emergency, the investor can redeem his investments from the fund within next 24 hours in case of liquid funds and 72 hours in other funds.
