Different schemes entail different levels of risks, depending upon their portfolio composition and fund objective. However, a person should not just blindly select any scheme.
| Mutual funds | Degree of Risk |
|---|---|
| Money Market Funds | Low |
| Income funds | Low to Medium |
| Balanced Funds | Medium |
| Growth Funds | Medium to High |
Every person has a different risk profile, which depends upon his personal attitude towards risks, age, income, liabilities, objectives, knowledge about financial markets and the term of investment. You should select a suitable mutual fund scheme according to your risk profile.
For instance, a person who has a low risk profile would be better off investing in a scheme with low risk, viz. money-market funds.
You have to match your risk profile to that of the scheme and then make a suitable choice
Mutual Funds are subject to market risk. Please read the offer document carefully before investing. Terms and Conditions apply.
