ICICI Prudential Balanced Advantage Fund Guidance
NAV Growth : Rs 53.6100
NAV IDCW Quarterly : Rs 17.0000
Suitable For Which Investors ?
“When you invest for five years or more, you can expect gains that beat the inflation rate as well as returns from fixed income options. But be prepared for ups and downs in your investment value along the way.
Dynamic Asset Allocation or Balanced Advantage funds invest your money in equity shares and bonds though their proportions are not fixed. The fund management team may increase of decrease the allocation to equity shares depending upon their market outlook.
These funds tend to fall less than pure equity funds when the stock markets decline because of their debt allocation. This makes them suitable for conservative equity investors.
Like for all equity-linked investments, you must invest only through the SIP route.”
Fund’s Investment Strategy :
The scheme seeks to provide capital appreciation and income distribution to the investors by using equity derivatives strategies, arbitrage opportunities and pure equity investments.
