Mutual Funds: When it comes to a comparatively safer investment options in the securities markets, mutual funds do the job. Still they are not immune to the risks of the market. Here’s an eye-opening comparison, why Mutual Funds may not ultimately be the best investment options.
- Market Risk: Mutual funds are directly affected by the market conditions and therefore are subject to the risks of the securities market.
- Fees and Expenses: Managing mutual funds require the asset management companies (AMC) and the fund managers to charge certain management fees and other expenses. This can eat a significant portion of your return.
- Performance Uncertainty: Past performance does not ensure any certainty of future results, offering no guarantee of returns.
- Exit Load: MFs charge an exit load in case the investment is redeemed within a certain period, which can reduce the effective returns.
- Lack of Control & Mismanagement: You do not have control over the specific investments chosen by the fund manager and your funds. Poor management can lead to subpar performance.
- Capital Gains Tax: Profits from mutual funds are taxable as per the short-term and long-term capital gains tax slabs.
- Entry Barriers: Some niche or specialized mutual funds require a higher initial deposit, which may not be ideal for small investors.
On the other hand, the Swarnim Bhavishya Yojna (SBY) is a transparent long-term deposit scheme with assured returns. You can also prematurely withdraw your amount and still get interest rates, that beat the rates of the traditional deposits. There is no management charge involved and the SBY is not subject to the traditional securities market’s risks. This makes the SBY one of the best Child Plan Fixed Deposits you can invest in today. Moreover, it is one of the safest long-term investment options to go with and secure your children’s future.
