Benefits of Investing in Equity Mutual Funds:

Some of the major benefits of investing in equity mutual funds such as ICICI Pru Exports and Other Services Fund are as follows:

• Diversified Portfolio: Equity funds are diversified with a widespread approach. However, these do not require large initial investments from the investor. Diversified equity funds are all about buying stocks of different companies at specific times in multiple sectors to ensure creation of a diversified portfolio. This is helpful in such a way that if a stock belonging to a specific sector drops, other stocks can make up for the loss.
• Capital Appreciation: This is the primary benefit of equity mutual fund investments. As a company grows & earns profits, the scheme chooses to reinvest the profit and grow through increasing market share, product developments, etc. With the increasing growth of the company, the market price of the stock also increases and this leads to capital appreciation which benefits investors.
• Dividend: Investments in blue-chip companies can potentially provide investors with a stream of regular income in the form of dividends. These companies usually pay out regular dividends in a variety of economic conditions. Having a diversified portfolio ensures steady stream of income throughout the year. Different companies have different cycles, so investors are liable to receive a regular income from their investments.
• Liquidity: Since stocks are traded on all major exchanges in the world every day, this makes them a highly liquid investment. Thus, an investor can sell their stocks whenever they want to. Stocks are definitely not as liquid as savings kept in your bank account but they are a lot more liquid when compared to real estate. Investors can sell their stocks and get their money within a week. That said, equity schemes do offer investors the opportunity to redeem investments at any time except for Equity Linked Saving Schemes (ELSS) which has a lock in period of 3 years and various closed-end schemes.

This means one can redeem all their investments at the time of need at a Net Asset Value (NAV) that is higher than the NAV at the time of purchase (provided the scheme has performed according to expectations). Investors can even invest more in equity mutual fund schemes during the market falls to buy additional units at lower prices. Such liberty of investing and redemption certainly gives investors better control over their investments.

• Professional Management: Market investments are always surrounded by a degree of uncertainty. A new investor may shy away from investing due to lack of adequate knowledge, time, self-discipline or just lack of prior investment experience. Equity mutual funds​​ are perfect in such a situation as they have an inherent design to tap professional expertise. Professionals manage investments which, in turn, relieve the stress created on the investor. Professional management by experts having years of experience in equity research is a plus for investors.
• Systematic/Regular investments: Equity mutual fund schemes allow investors to invest small sums at regular intervals through Systematic Investment Plans (SIP). SIP makes it simpler for new investors to invest in equity mutual fund schemes. A small amount invested on a monthly basis ends up helping build a huge fund corpus without burning a hole in the investor’s pocket. This also helps investors develop the habit of investing regularly, which is useful for long term wealth creation.
