New Mutual Fund Category For Risk Takers
Manage episode 456728400 series 3626341
In this episode, Monika discusses Sebi’s recent announcement of a new mutual fund category for high-net-worth investors. This new category will allow for higher-risk, potentially higher-return products, with a minimum investment of Rs 10 lakh. It aims to expand investment options without increasing risk in the broader market. Monika highlights the current limitations in mutual fund categories and explains how this change will give more flexibility in investment strategies. She will update listeners as more details emerge, especially regarding costs and fees.
Next, Monika covers the new rules for transferring financial products like mutual funds, stocks, and listed bonds. Sebi now allows up to 10 nominees and has simplified the inheritance process for easier management by heirs and joint owners, particularly for elderly or incapacitated investors.
In listener queries, Dr. Prateek Srivastava faces a dilemma about taking over his mother’s home loan. Monika suggests exploring options like splitting the loan burden between siblings or selling the house to reduce the financial strain while ensuring a valid will is in place. She also advises Shilpa K to keep her emergency fund safe in a large commercial bank rather than chasing higher returns in small finance banks. Lastly, Namit Saxena, who holds 40 mutual fund folios, is encouraged to streamline his portfolio to 6-8 funds, using tax exemptions to rebalance over time.
