Frequently Asked Questions

What is the function of fund managers?

Fund managers are responsible for keeping correct accounting records for investment funds. They are also involved in the implementation of investment plans and the management of the trading activity. This high-profile financial services position is most frequently accessible in private equity firms.

Is a mutual fund preferable to a savings account?

While mutual funds carry more risks than savings accounts, the returns are significantly greater and work well for long-term goals such as purchasing your dream home, supporting your children’s school, saving for retirement, etc.

When should I withdraw from a mutual fund?

Suppose an equity scheme has consistently underperformed its peers for three years or more. In that case, you should consider abandoning the scheme and transferring your investment to a similar fund with an established track record.

Can mutual funds go zero?

Theoretically, a mutual fund could lose its whole value if all of its investments fell to zero, but this is improbable. On the other hand, mutual funds can lose value since they are meant to take certain risks or target specific markets.

Is it safe to invest in mutual funds long-term?

Mutual funds are excellent for long-term financial goals and should be invested for at least five years. Short-term volatility should not concern investors. If your investment yields negative returns in the short term, don’t panic; instead, maintain investing because you can buy more units at the same price.

Can I withdraw my entire investment from a mutual fund at any time?

Most mutual funds are liquid investments which can be withdrawn anytime. Some funds, on the other hand, have a term of lock-in. One such scheme is the Equity Linked Savings Scheme (ELSS), which has a 3-year maturity period.

What happens when a mutual fund matures?

You must redeem your units through the same account if you purchased the mutual funds through a Demat or trading account. When the process is finished, an electronic payout (NEFT or IMPS) will be made against the redemption request.

Is HSBC a Good Investment?

HSBC mutual funds are solid and safe investments that can help you gain money and build wealth. But are you familiar with all of the types of HSBC mutual funds? There are several types of HSBC Mutual Funds. The HSBC India Opportunities Fund is an equity fund that invests in large-cap and mid-cap stocks. The HSBC Conservative Hybrid Fund invests in low-growth stocks for long-term gains. The HSBC Stable Return Fund and HSBC Balanced Advantage are bond funds to provide stability to the portfolio.

What Are the Different Types of HSBC Mutual Funds?
