There are many options like mutual funds, equities, gold, saving schemes, public provident funds, bonds, company deposits, insurance products and others.

Many investors like you, invest small portions of their money in a Fund which is regulated by Government bodies. This fund is managed by an experienced professional employed by the respective fund companies like SBI, HDFC, ICICI and similar. This pool of money is then invested by the fund in shares and company deposits of various companies based on their track record and financial performance. So instead of you managing your money, you give your money to an expert who is regulated by the laws of the country so that your interest is always protected. And you get the advantage of the fund manager’s experience and expertise. This fund is commonly referred to as Mutual Funds.

The portion of your money invested in mutual fund is termed as units. Each unit represents an investor’s part ownership in the fund. The combined holdings of the investors in the respective mutual fund are known as its portfolio. Fund manager manages this portfolio on a day-to-day basis and based on the fund manager’s investment decisions the value of this portfolio changes. The incremental increase in your share of the portfolio is the income generated by your investment. You can review your balance every day and decide if you want to withdraw or continue with the investment in the respective mutual fund.

Your money is always safe. When you decide to invest, we only act as a medium through which you can select, buy, sell and manage your investments. Your money gets transferred from your bank account to the account of the mutual fund you choose to invest. For example, say you decided to invest Rs 1,000 in SBI Large Cap Fund, the money is transferred from your bank account to SBI Mutual Fund’s account and becomes part of the SBI Mutual Fund’s portfolio.

You can log onto www.Makworth Finserv and choose a goal. Based on your selection you will be provided with a list of suggestions. Of course, this is just indicative. You can obviously do your own research if you want to and if you can. Some of the indicators for choosing a mutual find are their ratings, past performance, fund size (AUM – which is a short form of Assets Under Management) and the fund manager. All these can be checked at www.Makworth Finserv before investing.

For example:

(1) Fund A has given good returns in the last three years. However, it has a rating of 2 (that is risky) and has very less AUM (less people have invested in it). You should then probably find another fund with slightly lower returns but higher rating.
(2) Fund B has given average returns historically. But its fund manager has changed recently. You should then understand the previous funds managed by the fund manager and its performance.

All this too daunting? Boring? Complicated? Time consuming? No worries, we are just a phone call or an email away. We are always available to guide and help.
