For example, if you have a long term goal like building a retirement corpus, then you need to invest in a retirement fund or a retirement scheme that might help you to achieve a corpus as per your goals. Consistency in investing and patience to allow the Investments to grow over a certain span of time are two key elements of building wealth over the long term.
Mutual funds have been a part of the Indian investment industry for a while now. They are slowly gaining traction among Indian investors because of the unique quality of carrying a diversified portfolio. Financial advisors usually recommend investors to determine their risk appetite before investing in market linked schemes like mutual funds. Risk appetite is nothing but an investor's ability to take a certain amount of rest with their finances and invest in a scheme with the hope of generating capital appreciation at some point of time in the near future. What Asset Management companies do is that they collect money from investors sharing a common investment objective to invest this capital raised in the mutual fund. Since mutual funds allocate its assets across multiple sectors, industries and securities they give investors an opportunity to see capital appreciation across various markets. Market regulator SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) describe mutual funds as, "a mechanism for pooling the resources by issuing units to the investors and investing funds in securities in accordance with objectives as disclosed in the offer document. Investments in securities are spread across a wide cross-section of industries and sectors and thus the risk is reduced."
Mutual Funds have been further categorised by SEBI for investors to be able to distinguish between multiple schemes and take informed investment decisions that might help them with their life's financial goals and income needs. Of all the mutual funds out there equity funds are one of the most sought after investment vehicles for aggressive investors.
