Sir,
Why only “high risk investors” should invest in this scheme. It is an index fund and that too, of the most valued 20 stocks out of Nifty 50 companies. What else would one want. It is a basket of 20 best companies in India and it has given historically also great returns/results.
In fact, any index fund, for that matter, has less risk as compared with individual stocks and this index fund is for ‘creme de la creme’ companies.
Hello Kamal, Though this fund invests in 20 liquid funds that are part of NIFTY50, it invests in EQUITY SHARES. Equity investments are only for high risk investors as there are chances that capital can get eroded. One cannot give guarantee that capital is protected when investing in equity. Hence this is for HIGH RISK investors only
Hi Suresh,
Can u pls share any existing MF which are following the same index or similar sort of index as this new NFO will follow and also share the performance of these MF.
Thanks
Hello vivek, There are no funds which are investing in this index. Index past performance can be considered here (thought past performance may not repeat in future) if you want to check how such funds can perform in future
I believe there are couple of ETFs — one from ICICI and another from Kotak — that provide an instrument for investing in the NV20 index.
Hello AI, There are two ETFs that are investing in this index i.e. Nippon ETF NV20 ETF and ICICI NV20 ETF. Since this fund invests in underlying index and past performance is known, there is no point in understanding other ETFs/Funds (except for academic interest)
