Suitable For Which Investors ?
“Dynamic Bond funds have the freedom to invest in bonds of any duration. Depending on where it expects to earn maximum returns, the fund management team actively decides whether to invest in bonds maturing in a few months or in the ones maturing several years later.
However, retail investors can avoid these funds altogether. There are far too many kinds of debt funds with a highly nuanced classification based on the type or duration of bonds they can invest in. We believe that so many fund categories add to complexity which is easily avoidable. Retail investors can simply invest in Liquid funds for an investment horizon of up to one year and Short Duration funds for the fixed income allocation (which should be 100 per cent for investment horizon of up to three years) in their longer-term portfolios.”

The scheme aims to generate reasonable returns through a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities. The average maturity profile of the portfolio of the scheme is likely to be up to 4 years and it may, subject to applicable regulations, invest in offshore securities up to 25% of its assets.
