Working Of Mutual Funds:

 

People can purchase mutual fund bonds from brokers, directly from companies and even through secondary investors such as stock exchanges. Investors have to select the suitable company, submit the required documents and then, buy its mutual fund. NAV (Net Asset Value) is the price of each share of mutual fund. NAV includes brokerage fees, share value and other fees.

 

These fees change on daily basis. After making investment in mutual funds, the company issues the investors with certificates. This certificate is a testimony of individual’s contribution in the emoluments of mutual funds. The mutual fund company then invests this sum in different sectors such as power, infrastructure and so on. Investors get interests on invested bonds on yearly basis or as decided by the company. If the company generates more profits, then it issues bonus checks to their investors.

 

People can redeem their purchases (mutual fund investment) in secondary market (stock exchange). They can sell their shares back to brokers, whenever they want. Mutual fund companies generate new shares to hold new investors and sell these shares to them.  These companies continue to sell shares until the conclusion date. Each mutual fund company has their own investment advisor, who manages the investment portfolio.

 

While making investments in mutual funds remember that, its returns depend on the performance of the company during the specific periods. It specifies the record of accomplishment of that particular company. However, people need to understand that, the past performance of specific mutual fund cannot assure its future results and vice a versa.
