A scheme with relatively low interest rate risk and moderate credit risk.
The PRC matrix identifies the highest amount of potential risk that a debt mutual fund can assume.
This regulation was implemented by SEBI on December 1, 2021, requiring fund houses to categorize schemes under a potential risk class (PRC) matrix.
Money market funds are a category of debt mutual funds that invest in short-term, high-quality money market instruments such as treasury bills, commercial papers, certificates of deposit, and other low-duration debt securities. These instruments have maturities of up to one year, which helps manage interest rate risk while aiming for reasonable return potential.
Money market funds offer investors a relatively stable and liquid avenue for short-term investment needs. They may be used for parking surplus cash for a few months. Because they invest in high-quality issuers, these funds generally carry lower credit risk, though all market-linked investments involve some degree of risk.
Money market funds may be suitable for investors who have a short investment horizon, want relatively quick access to their money, and seek the potential for modest returns. You can invest in money market funds through lumpsum as well as a Systematic Investment Plan or SIP.
When investing in the Bajaj Finserv Money Market Fund, you can opt for either a Direct Plan or a Regular Plan, depending on your preferences and investment approach.
In this plan, you invest through a distributor who offers guidance on scheme selection and handles the application process. To compensate for the distributor’s services, the plan comes with a higher expense ratio. However, the distributor’s support can be valuable in aligning your investment choices with your financial goals and risk appetite, and in managing transactions like purchases and redemptions.
This option is meant for investors who are comfortable making decisions independently, without the involvement of a distributor. Since there is no distributor involved, the expense ratio for this plan is lower. Over time, the reduced cost structure can potentially lead to slightly higher returns.
You can invest in the Bajaj Finserv Money Market Fund through both online and offline modes.
If you’re investing via a distributor, they will provide the application form, help you fill it out, and submit it on your behalf. Alternatively, if you prefer to invest directly with the AMC, you can submit the application form at any of its official points of acceptance.
Investments can be made through your distributor or through the direct plan. You can invest through your Demat or online trading account. You can also invest through the Bajaj Finserv AMC investor portal.
The Bajaj Finserv Money Market Fund is taxed as per the latest rules for debt mutual funds. For investments made on or after April 1, 2023, all capital gains, regardless of the holding period, are added to your total income and taxed according to your applicable income tax slab.
This means there is no distinction between short-term and long-term capital gains , and indexation benefits are no longer available. Investors should consider their tax bracket before investing and consult a financial advisor to understand the impact of taxation on their overall returns.

Our Investment Philosophy reflects what we, as an organisation, believe will generate a good return on equity investment for our investors in the long term. It dictates our goals and guides decision making.
Alpha (a) is a term used in investing to describe an investment strategy’s ability to beat the market.
Alpha is thus also often referred to as excess return or the abnormal rate of return in relation to a benchmark, when adjusted for risk. Essentially, it means doing better than the crowd without taking disproportionate risk.

Collecting superior information
Analysts and portfolio managers strive to collect superior information about the business and the management of the company. They try to generate superior earnings forecast and the balance strength of the company and the industry, thereby trying to 'beat the market' on information edge. This is an important source of alpha for an investor. However, over the years, retaining the information edge has become more difficult and expensive. With a whole lot of investors trying to collect superior information, how can an investor be sure to continuously have accurate and material information about the companies, ahead of others, all the time?

Processing information better
Even if you don't have material information earlier than the crowd, you can still generate better outcomes if you are able to process this information better. Investors develop models and algorithms with enhanced predictive powers to forecast the next move. Fund managers who invest based on some pure formal analytical models are quantitative managers. Here, the goal is to try and beat other investors based on the sophistication of procedures or analytics. The analytical edge can be quite useful until it gets copied by many, and then it may stop generating superior returns.

Exploiting behavioural biases
As the name suggests, this edge is achieved by superior behaviour in reacting to the inputs available to maximise alpha. Modern finance assumes people behave with extreme rationality. However, researchers in behavioural finance have shown that this is not true. Moreover, these deviations from rationality are often systematic. Behavioural managers try to exploit situations where securities are mispriced by the market because of behavioural factors. At Bajaj Finserv AMC, we endeavour to combine the best of these edges.
