What is Mutual Funds ?
Mutual funds are investment vehicles that pool money from multiple investors to create a diversified portfolio of assets such as stocks, bonds, and other securities. Managed by professional fund managers, mutual funds aim to achieve specific investment objectives, whether it's growth, income, or capital preservation. Investors buy units of the mutual fund, and the returns are distributed based on the number of units held. This collective approach offers diversification, professional management, and accessibility, making mutual funds a popular choice for individuals looking to invest with varying risk profiles and financial goals.
