funds adopt different strategies and accordingly offer different schemes of

ended and closeended "hich are offered by the mutual funds!

Portfolio classification projects the combination of in&estment instruments and
in&estment a&enues a&ailable to mutual funds to manage their funds! Any
portfolio scheme can be either open ended or close ended!
". %perational $lassification
;a= %pen Ended Sc1emes: As the name implies the si/e of the scheme
1Fund@ is open i!e!, not specified or predetermined! ?ntry to the fund is al"ays
open to the in&estor "ho can subscribe at any time! 2uch fund stands ready to buy
or sell its securities at any time! )t implies that the capitali/ation of the fund is
constantly changing as in&estors sell or buy their shares! Further, the shares or
units are normally not traded on the stoc# e.change but are repurchased by the
fund at announced rates! 0penended schemes ha&e comparati&ely better liquidity
despite the fact that these are not listed! The reason is that in&estors can any time
approach mutual fund for sale of such units! %o intermediaries are required!
Moreo&er, the reali/able amount is certain since repurchase is at a price based on
declared net asset &alue 1%AC@! %o minute to minute fluctuations in rates haunt
the in&estors! The portfolio mi. of such schemes has to be in&estments, "hich are
acti&ely traded in the mar#et! 0ther"ise, it "ill not be possible to calculate %AC!
This is the reason that generally openended schemes are equity based! Moreo&er,
desiring frequently traded securities, openended schemes hardly ha&e in their
portfolio shares of comparati&ely ne" and smaller companies since these are not
generally traded! )n such funds, option to rein&est its di&idend is also a&ailable!
2ince there is al"ays a possibility of "ithdra"als, the management of such funds
-6
8/16/2019 Investemt on Mutual Fund vs Equitites
25/89
becomes more tedious as managers ha&e to "or# from crisis to crisis! 3risis may
be on t"o fronts, one is, that une.pected "ithdra"als require funds to maintain a
high le&el of cash a&ailable e&ery time implying thereby idle cash! Fund managers
ha&e to face questions li#e N "hat to sell=! Ke could &ery "ell ha&e to sell his most
liquid assets! 2econd, by &irtue of this situation such funds may fail to grab
fa&orable opportunities! Further, to match quic# cash payments, funds cannot
ha&e matching reali/ation from their portfolio due to intricacies of the stoc#
mar#et! Thus, success of the openended schemes to a great e.tent depends on the
efficiency of the capital mar#et and the selection and quality of the portfolio!

Equity investment generally refers to the buying and holding of shares of stoc#
on a stoc# mar#et by indi&iduals and funds in anticipation of income from
di&idends and capital gain as the &alue of the stoc# rises! )t also sometimes refers
to the acquisition of equity 1o"nership@ participation in a pri&ate 1unlisted@
company!
The equities held by pri&ate indi&iduals are often held &ia mutual funds or other
forms of pooled in&estment &ehicle, many of "hich ha&e quoted prices that are
listed in financial ne"spapers or maga/ines the mutual funds are typically
managed by prominent fund management firms or fund managers! 2uch holdings
allo" indi&idual in&estors to obtain the di&ersification of the fund1s@ and to obtain
the s#ill of the professional fund managers in charge of the fund1s@!
"nalysis
+ortolio #iversiication
By o"ning shares in a mutual fund instead of o"ning indi&idual stoc#s or bonds,
your ris# is spread out! The idea behind di&ersification is to in&est in a large
number of assets so that a loss in any particular in&estment is minimi/ed by gains

$onclusion
Mutual funds ha&e mar#et ris# to some e.tent but they help in co&ering
company ris#!
Gust li#e shares, mutual funds do not offer assured returns and protection of
capital and carry ris#! For instance, unli#e ban# deposits, your in&estment in a
mutual fund can fall in &alue! )n addition, mutual funds are not insured or
guaranteed by any go&ernment body!
$is# di&ersification helps, if ris# minimi/ation is your objecti&e! Because funds
ha&e small holdings in so many different companies, high returns from a fe"
in&estments often dont ma#e much difference on the o&erall return!
