Suitable For Which Investors?
“Ultra-short Duration debt funds predominantly invest in bonds maturing in three to six months. They aim to earn slightly better returns over liquid funds but with a marginally higher degree of volatility.
They are suitable to park the amount you have set aside to meet any emergency needs or any surplus money that you don’t need for the next six months up to 1-1.5 years. Investors who want to avoid the complexity of wading through the very finely classified categories of debt funds can simply give these funds a miss and stick to liquid funds for this investing need. But those, who want slightly better returns and can withstand a little more volatility, can consider ultra-short duration funds.
The risk of incurring a loss in these funds over the said timeframe is low but they do not guarantee returns or safety of capital. Remember, they are geared to earn slightly better returns than what you can get from a bank account or a short duration fixed deposit, but are not suitable to build wealth in the long run.”
Fund’s Investment Strategy:
The scheme seeks to generate regular income by investing in a portfolio of debt and money market instruments such that the Macaulay duration of the portfolio is between 3 months 6 months. A Relatively Low Interest Rate Risk and Moderate Credit Risk
