Alok Kumar Agarwal on How Mutual Funds Simplify Equity Investments for Beginners


According to a recent report by the Association of Mutual Funds in India, the Average Assets Under Management (AAUM) of the Indian Mutual Fund Industry reached ₹40.04 lakh crore in March 2023. This highlights the growing popularity of equity investments, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic.


Mutual fund investments come with several benefits. One of the main advantages is diversification, which means spreading your investments across different assets to reduce risk. When you invest in a mutual fund, your money is spread across a variety of stocks or bonds, reducing the risk compared to investing in individual stocks or bonds.

Investing in mutual funds through a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is the best option for beginners. Starting with an index fund is a safer choice because it tends to have lower volatility. However, you need to be prepared for the ups and downs of the market when investing in equities. That's why I recommend long-term investments to take full advantage of compounding," explains Alok Kumar Agarwal from Alankit.
