FAQ

What is a banking and PSU mutual fund?

Banking and PSU mutual funds invest predominantly in debt instruments of banks, public sector undertakings and public financial institutions. They are relatively stable and have the potential to offer modest returns in the short-to-medium term.

All mutual fund investments are subject to market risk. Banking and PSU funds offer relative stability of capital but do entail low-to-moderate risk. They have low credit risk because they invest in high quality securities, including government-backed ones. However, because of the relatively long maturity of the underlying securities, they are exposed to interest rate risk – the risk that the value of a security in the secondary market may fall because of a rise in interest rates in the economy.

Yes, banking & PSU debt schemes are relatively stable as they invest in debt securities of banks and PSUs that are government-backed or owned.

These funds do not have a lock-in period. They are suitable for investors with a short to medium term investment horizon.
