MUTUAL FUNDS
A mutual fund is a pool of money managed by a Professional Fund Manager.
It is a trust that collects money from a number of investors who share a common investment objective and invests the same in equities, bonds, money market instruments and/or other securities. And the income / gains generated from this collective investment is distributed proportionately amongst the investors after deducting applicable expenses and levies, by calculating a scheme’s “Net Asset Value” or NAV.
Simply put, the money pooled in by a large number of investors is what makes up a Mutual Fund.
