Capitalmind had a Masterclass on Debt Funds recently, and we now have the recording available for customers to view (or purchase, if you missed it).
They told you liquid funds were safe. They told you debt funds were safer than fixed deposits. What they told you was wrong. There’s risk, reward and all sorts of madness in the world of fixed income.
There’s more money (13 lakh crores) sitting in debt mutual funds than there is in equity mutual funds (12 lakh crores). Most of us know that equity mutual funds are risky or “subject to market risk” as the jingle goes.
But the “safer” variety, debt funds, can often have hidden risks, too much information and terms that confuse you.
You’ll learn a skill or three. It’s not just basic – though we’ll cover the absolute basics too – it will be advanced enough that you’ll be able to tell your friends the YTM isn’t great but you’re taking a directional call on the interest rate cycle. Without having to read a dictionary. We’ll cover:
- Why should you invest in debt mutual funds in the first place?
