Investing in stock markets directly and making a profit is not everyone’s cup of tea at least in part because after our day job we have little energy to make an in-depth study into the ups and downs of the share market. Therefore such task is best left to professional investors and fund managers, which is what Mutual Funds provide.
A mutual fund is best defined as a pool of funds collected from multiple investors who are interested in making their money grow. This pool of money or corpus is managed by one or full-time fund manager who have one basic aim to make the investment grow. Due to this professional support that you get from a mutual fund, it is much easier than buying and selling individual stocks and bonds by yourself. Additionally, you have the flexibility to liquidate your mutual fund investments as and when you need to.
