What are Mutual Funds?
Skip this section if you are already familiar with it.
Mutual funds are professionally managed investment schemes in which the money of several investors are pooled together and invested in equity and equity related instruments. As an investor, you can buy mutual fund units which denote your share of holdings in a particular scheme. The units can be purchased or redeemed at the current NAV (net asset value) of the fund. These NAVs keep fluctuating according to the underlying securities in which the mutual fund scheme is investing.
There are two ways in which one can invest in mutual funds.
Lump sum payment – It is a one shot investment. If one invests the entire amount he wishes to invest in a single go, it is known as lump sum investment.
SIP – SIP or systematic investment plan is an arrangement in which a pre-determined small sums of amount is to be invested at a regular interval say daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc. it is a more systematic approach to investment.
