How do I know where the Mutual Fund Scheme has invested money mobilized from the investors?
Ans: The mutual funds are required to disclose their schemes’ portfolio in the newspapers periodically. Some of the mutual funds send newsletters to the unit holders at the regular intervals, which contain portfolios of the schemes. The scheme portfolio shows investment made in various securities i.e. equity, debentures, money market instruments, government securities, etc. alongwith their quantity, market value and % to NAV. These portfolio statements also required to disclose illiquid securities in the portfolio, investment made in rated and unrated debt securities, non-performing assets (NPAs), etc. These portfolios are also available on the AMCs’ websites. These details are provided on IDBIPaisabuilder’s MF section. Investors are requested to go through it before investing.
