CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
FINANCE
Finance describes the management, creation and study of money, banking, credit,
investments, assets and liabilities that make up financial systems, as well as the study of
those financial instruments. Some people prefer to divide finance into three distinct
categories: public finance, corporate finance andpersonal finance. There is also the recently
emerging area of social finance. Additionally, the study of behavioural finance aims to learn
about the more "human" side of a science consideredby most to be highly mathematical.
Personal Finance:
Personal finance is the science of handling money. It involves all financial decisions
and activities of an individual or household – the practices of earning, saving, investing and
spending.
Privateer Finance:
The private finance can be further divided into personal finance and business finance.
The personal finance is concerned with the acquisition and the proper utilization of economic
resource by the individuals and households for meeting their different needs. The business
finance is also a part of private finance. The business finance is concerned with the
acquisition, management and utilization of fund by the private business organizations.
Public finance:
Public finance is the study of the financial aspect of the government. Here we study
about the government expenditure, public revenue, public borrowing and financial
administration. The economic activities of the public enterprises also fall under
public finance. The objective of private of business finance is to earn maximum return or
profit. On the contrary the objective of public finance is to maximize social welfare.
MUTUAL FUNDS
But this requires spending time to find out the performance of the company whose
share is being purchased, understanding the future business prospects of the company, finding
out the track record of the promoters and the dividend, bonus issue history of the company
etc. An informed investor needs to do research before investing. However, many investors
find it cumbersome and time consuming to pore over so much of information, get access to so
much of details before investing in the shares. Investors therefore prefer the mutual fund
route.
They invest in a mutual fund scheme which in turn takes the responsibility of
investing in stocks and shares after due analysis and research. The investors need not bother
with researching hundreds of stocks. It leaves it to the mutual fund and it’s professional fund
management team. Another reason why investors prefer mutual funds is because mutual
funds offer diversification.
These are some of the reasons why mutual funds have gained in popularity over the
years. A country traditionally putting money in safe, risk-free investments like Bank FDs,
Post Office and Life Insurance, has started to invest in stocks, bonds and shares – thanks to
the mutual fund industry.
However, there is still a lot to be done. The Rs. 7 Lakh crores stated above, includes
investments by the corporate sector as well. Going by various reports, not more than 5% of
household savings are Chanel listed into the markets, either directly or through the mutual
fund route. Not all parts of the country are contributing equally into the mutual fund corpus. 8
cities account for over 60% of the total assets under management in mutual funds.
These are issues which need to be addressed jointly by all concerned with the mutual
fund industry. Market dynamics are making industry players to look at smaller cities to
increase penetration. Competition is ensuring that costs incurred in managing the funds are
kept low and fund houses are trying to give more value for money by increasing operational
efficiencies and cutting expenses. As of today there are around 40 Mutual Funds in the
country. Together they offer around 1051 schemes to the investor. Many more mutual funds
are expected to enter India in the next few years.
All these developments will lead to far more participation by the retail investor and
ample of job opportunities for young Indians in the mutual fund industry. This module is
designed to meet the requirements of both the investor as well as the industry professionals,
mainly those proposing to enter the mutual fund industry and therefore require a foundation
in the subject.
REASEARCH METHODOLGY :
2. Secondary data
1. PRIMARY DATA:
For the present study the Primary data that is the general information gathered
through the Google. In this study Primary data is collected through observation and taking
opinions from staff.
2. SECONDARY DATA:
Secondary data is the data, which is collected and complied for different purposes,
which are used in research for this study. The secondary data are those data which
have already been collected through other sources like newspaper, magazine, books&
internet, journals.
The secondary data provides information on key variables, which play a major part in
the actual research areCompany’s broachers, Web sites, Fact sheet, the brief lectures
from the company executives and the project guide himself, Professionals and others.
The following tools has been used in this project for finding or measuring the risk and
return of different equity mutual funds
The quality of the project is based on the quality of the tools selected for analysis and
interpretation of the data collected. The project trainee has been taken complete care
over the quality of project. Hence, the project trainee has analyzed the data with the
help of the statically tools like: Mean,Return, Variance, Standard Deviation & Sharpe
Ratio.
Return
Variance

Sharpe Ratio
RETURN:
RETURN =

VARIANCE:

STANDARD DEVIATION:
SHARPE RATIO:
In this model, performance of a fund is evaluated on the basis of Sharpe Ratio, which
is a ratio of returns generated by the fund over and above risk free rate of return and the
total risk associated with it.
According to Sharpe, it is the total risk of the fund that the investors are concerned about. So,
the model evaluates funds on the basis of reward per unit of total risk. Symbolically, it can be
written as
Sharpe Index = (Rm - Rf)/SD
LIMITATIONS:
For the calculation of risk tools used standard deviation and variation are only taken.
Risk adjusted return calculated through sharp ratio.
For the data analysis the data is taken only for 5years & only 6months data has taken
in 2017.
The study is based on only to selected equity mutual fund schemes.
The performance is analyzed based on risk, variance & standard deviation only and
due to time constraint in-depth analysis could not be made, Hence care to be taken
while interpreting the results to similar studies.
CHAPTER-2
INDUSTRY PROFILE
&
COMPANY PROFILE
INDUSTRY PROFILE
The mutual fund industry in India started in 1963 with the formation of Unit Trust of India, at
the initiative of the Government of India and Reserve Bank of India. The history of mutual funds in
India can be broadly divided into four distinct phases
Unit Trust of India (UTI) was established in 1963 by an Act of Parliament. It was set up by
the Reserve Bank of India and functioned under the Regulatory and administrative control of the
Reserve Bank of India. In 1978 UTI was de-linked from the RBI and the Industrial Development
Bank of India (IDBI) took over the regulatory and administrative control in place of RBI. The first
scheme launched by UTI was Unit Scheme 1964. At the end of 1988 UTI had Rs. 6,700 crores of
assets under management.
1987 marked the entry of non-UTI, public sector mutual funds set up by public sector
banks and Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and General Insurance Corporation of
India (GIC). SBI Mutual Fund was the first non-UTI Mutual Fund established in June 1987
followed by Can bank Mutual Fund (Dec 87), Punjab National Bank Mutual Fund (Aug 89),
Indian Bank Mutual Fund (Nov 89), Bank of India (Jun 90), Bank of Baroda Mutual Fund
(Oct 92). LIC established its mutual fund in June 1989 while GIC had set up its mutual fund
in December 1990.
With the entry of private sector funds in 1993, a new era started in the Indian mutual
fund industry, giving the Indian investors a wider choice of fund families. Also, 1993 was the
year in which the first Mutual Fund Regulations came into being, under which all mutual
funds, except UTI were to be registered and governed. Therest while Kothari Pioneer (now
merged with Franklin Templeton) was the first private sector mutual fund registered in July
1993.
The number of mutual fund houses went on increasing, with many foreign mutual
funds setting up funds in India and also the industry has witnessed several mergers and
acquisitions. As at the end of January 2003, there were 33 mutual funds with total assets of
Rs.1, 21,805 crores. The Unit Trust of India with Rs.44, 541 crores of assets under
management was way ahead of other mutual funds.
In February 2003, following the repeal of the Unit Trust of India Act 1963 UTI was
bifurcated into two separate entities. One is the Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of
India with assets under management of Rs. 29,835 crores as at the end of January 2003,
representing broadly, the assets of US 64 scheme, assured return and certain other schemes.
The Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India, functioning under an administrator and
under the rules framed by Government of India and does not come under the purview of the
Mutual Fund Regulations.
The second is the UTI Mutual Fund, sponsored by SBI, PNB, BOB and LIC. It is
registered with SEBI and functions under the Mutual Fund Regulations. With the bifurcation
of the erstwhile UTI which had in March 2000 more than Rs76,000 crores of assets under
management and with the setting up of a UTI Mutual Fund, conforming to the SEBI Mutual
Fund Regulations, and with recent mergers taking place among different private sector funds,
the mutual fund industry has entered its current phase of consolidation and growth.
Since then, IFIC has played an integral role in the regulatory development of the
mutual funds industry in Canada, proactively influencing and advancing industry issues
within the regulatory framework, while increasing members’ efficiencies, knowledge and
proficiency. IFIC provides a consistently high level of service to enable dealer and manager
members to work together in a co-operative forum to enhance the integrity and growth of the
industry and strengthen investor confidence.
AMFI, the association of SEBI registered mutual funds in India of all the registered
Asset Management Companies, was incorporated on August 22, 1995, as a non-profit
organization. As of now, all the 42 Asset Management Companies that are registered with
SEBI are its members.
OBJECTIVES OF AMFI:
The Principal objective of AMFI is
1) Promote the interests of the mutual funds and unit holders and interact with
regulators- SEBI/RBI/Govt./Regulators
2) To increase public awareness and understanding of the concept and working of
mutual funds in the country, to undertake investor awareness programmes and to
disseminate information on the mutual fund industry.
3) To develop a cadre of well-trained distributors and to implement a programme of
training and certification for all intermediaries and others engaged in the industry
REGULATIONS:
Regulations ensure that schemes do not invest beyond a certain percent of their
NAVs in a single security. Some of the guidelines regarding these are given below:
No scheme can invest more than 15% of its NAV in rated debt instruments of a single
issuer. This limit may be increased to 20% with prior approval of Trustees. This
restriction is not applicable to Government securities.
No scheme can invest more than 10% of its NAV in unrated paper of a single issuer
and total investment by any scheme in unrated papers cannot exceed 25% of NAV
No fund, under all its schemes can hold more than 10% of company’s paid up capital.
No scheme can invest more than 10% of its NAV in a single company.
If a scheme invests in another scheme of the same or different AMC, no fees will be
charged. Aggregate inter scheme investment cannot exceed 5% of net asset value of
the mutual fund.
No scheme can invest in unlisted securities of its sponsor or its group entities.
Schemes can invest in unlisted securities issued by entities other than the sponsor or
sponsor’s group. Open ended schemes can invest maximum of 5% of net assets in
such securities whereas close ended schemes can invest up to 10% of net assets in
such securities.
Schemes cannot invest in listed entities belonging to the sponsor group beyond 25%
of its net assets.

CHAPTER-3
THEROTICAL FRAMEWORK
THEORITICAL FRAME WORK
For anybody to become well aware about mutual funds, it is imperative for him
or her to know the structure of a mutual fund. How does a mutual fund come into being?
Who are the important people in a mutual fund? What are their roles? etc. We will start our
understanding by looking at the mutual fund structure in brief. Mutual Funds in India follow
a 3-tier structure. There is a Sponsor (the First tier), who thinks of starting a mutual fund. The
Sponsor approaches the Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI), which is the market
regulator and also the regulator for mutual funds.
Not everyone can start a mutual fund. SEBI checks whether the person is of
integrity, whether he has enough experience in the financial sector, his networth etc. Once
SEBI is convinced, the sponsor creates a Public Trust (the Second tier) as per the Indian
Trusts Act, 1882. Trusts have no legal identity in India and cannot enter into contracts, hence
the Trustees are the people authorized to act on behalf of the Trust. Contracts are entered into
in the name of the Trustees. Once the Trust is created, it is registered with SEBI after which
this trust is known as the mutual fund.
This is the role of the Asset Management Company (the Third tier). Trustees
appoint the Asset Management Company (AMC), to manage investor’s money. The AMC in
return charges a fee for the services provided and this fee is borne by the investors as it is
deducted from the money collected from them. The AMC’s Board of Directors must have at
least 50% of Directors who are independent directors. The AMC has to be approved by SEBI.
The AMC functions under the supervision of it’s Board of Directors, and also under the
direction of the Trustees and SEBI. It is the AMC, which in the name of the Trust, floats new
schemes and manage these schemes by buying and selling securities.
In order to do this the AMC needs to follow all rules and regulations
prescribed by SEBI and as per the Investment Management Agreement it signs with the
Trustees.If any fund manager, analyst intends to buy/ sell some securities, the permission of
the Compliance Officer is a must. A compliance Officer is one of the most important persons
in the AMC.
CUSTODIAN
The role of the AMC is to manage investor’s money on a day to day basis. Thus it is
imperative that people with the highest integrity are involved with this activity. The AMC
cannot deal with a single broker beyond a certain limit of transactions.
The AMC cannot act as a Trustee for some other Mutual Fund. The responsibility
of preparing the OD lies with the AMC. Appointments of intermediaries like independent
financial advisors (IFAs), national and regional distributors, banks, etc. is also done by the
AMC. Finally, it is the AMC which is responsible for the acts of its employees and service
providers.
NFO
The AMC launches new schemes, under the name of the Trust, after getting
approval from the Trustees and SEBI. The launch of a new scheme is known as a New Fund
Offer (NFO). We see NFOs hitting markets regularly. It is like an invitation to the investors
to put their money into the mutual fund scheme by subscribing to its units. When a scheme is
launched, the distributors talk to potential investors and collect money from them by way of
cheques or demand drafts. Mutual funds cannot accept cash. (Mutual funds units can also be
purchased on-line through a number of intermediaries who offer on-line purchase /
redemption facilities). Before investing, it is expected that the investor reads the Offer
Document (OD) carefully to understand the risks associated with the scheme.
Registrars and Transfer Agents (RTAs) perform the important role of maintaining
investor records. All the New Fund Offer (NFO) forms, redemption forms (i.e. when an
investor wants to exit from a scheme, it requests for redemption) go to the RTA’s office
where the information is converted from physical to electronic form. How many units will the
investor get, at what price, what is the applicable NAV, how much money will he get in case
of redemption, exit loads, folio number, etc. is all taken care of by the RTA.
The investor has to fill a form, which is available with the distributor. The investor
must read the Offer Document (OD) before investing in a mutual fund scheme. In case the
investor does not read the OD, he must read the Key Information Memorandum (KIM),
which is available with the application form. Investors have the right to ask for the KIM/ OD
from the distributor. Once the form is filled and the cheque is given to the distributor, he
forwards both these documents to the RTA. The RTA after capturing all the information from
the application form into the system, sends the form to a location where all the forms are
stored and the cheque is sent to the bank where the mutual fund has an account.
♦ Investors are mutual, beneficial and proportional owners of the scheme’s assets. The
investments are held by the trust in fiduciary capacity (The fiduciary duty is a legal
relationship of confidence or trust between two or more parties).
♦ In case of dividend declaration, investors have a right to receive the dividend within 30
days of declaration.
♦ On redemption request by investors, the AMC must dispatch the redemption proceeds
within 10 working days of the request. In case the AMC fails to do so, it has to pay an interest
@ 15%. This rate may change from time to time subject to regulations.
♦ In case the investor fails to claim the redemption proceeds immediately, then the applicable
NAV depends upon when the investor claims the redemption proceeds.
♦ Investors can obtain relevant information from the trustees and inspect documents like trust
deed, investment management agreement, annual reports, offer documents, etc. They must
receive audited annual reports within 6 months from the financial year end.
Equity Funds (or any Mutual Fund scheme for that matter) can either be open ended
or close ended. An open ended scheme allows the investor to enter and exit at his
convenience, anytime (except under certain conditions) whereas a close ended scheme
restricts the freedom of entry and exit. Whenever a new fund is launched by an AMC, it is
known as New Fund Offer (NFO). Units are offered to investors at the par value of Rs. 10/
unit. In case of open ended schemes, investors can buy the units even after the NFO period is
over. Thus, when the fund sells units, the investor buys the units from the fund and when the
investor wishes to redeem the units, the fund repurchases the units from the investor. This can
be done even after the NFO has closed
The buy / sell of units takes place at the Net Asset Value (NAV) declared by the fund. The
freedom to invest after the NFO period is over is not there in close ended schemes. Investors
have to invest only during the NFO period; i.e. as long as the NFO is on or the scheme is
open for subscription. Once the NFO closes, new investors cannot enter, nor can existing
investors exit, till the term of the scheme comes to an end. However, in order to provide entry
and exit option, close ended mutual funds list their schemes on stock exchanges. This
provides an opportunity for investors to buy and sell the units from each other. This is just
like buying / selling shares on the stock exchange. This is done through a stock broker. The
outstanding units of the fund does not increase in this case since the fund is itself not selling
any units. Sometimes, close ended funds also offer ‘buy-back of fund shares / units”, thus
offering another avenue for investors to exit the fund. Therefore, regulations drafted in India
permit investors in close ended funds to exit even before the term is over.
EQUITY FUNDS
These are by far the most widely known category of funds though they account for
broadly 40% of the industry’s assets, while the remaining 60% is contributed by debt oriented
funds. Equity funds essentially invest the investor’s money in equity shares of companies.
Fund managers try and identify companies with good future prospects and invest in the shares
of such companies. They generally are considered as having the highest levels of risks (equity
share prices can fluctuate a lot), and hence, they also offer the probability of maximum
returns. However, High Risk, High Return should not be understood as “If I take high risk I
will get high returns”. Nobody is guaranteeing higher returns if one takes high risk by
investing in equity funds, hence it must be understood that “If I take high risk, I may get high
returns or I may also incur losses”. This concept of Higher the Risk, Higher the Returns must
be clearly understood before investing in Equity Funds, as it is one of the important
characteristics of Equity fund investing.
Equity Funds are defined as those funds which have at least 65% of their Average
Weekly Net Assets invested in Indian Equities. This is important from taxation point of view,
as funds investing 100% in international equities are also equity funds from the investors’
asset allocation point of view, but the tax laws do not recognise these funds as Equity Funds
and hence investors have to pay tax on the Long Term Capital Gains made from such
investments (which they do not have to in case of equity funds which have at least 65% of
their Average Weekly Net Assets invested in Indian Equities).
INDEX FUND
Equity Schemes come in many variants and thus can be segregated according to
their risk levels. At the lowest end of the equity funds risk – return matrix come the index
funds while at the highest end come the sectoral schemes or specialty schemes. These
schemes are the riskiest amongst all types’ schemes as well. However, since equities as an
asset class are risky, there is no guaranteeing returns for any type of fund.
Index Funds invest in stocks comprising indices, such as the Nifty 50, which is a
broad based index comprising 50 stocks. There can be funds on other indices which have a
large number of stocks such as the CNX Midcap 100 or S&P CNX 500. Here the investment
is spread across a large number of stocks. In India today we find many index funds based on
the Nifty 50 index, which comprises large, liquid and blue chip 50 stocks.
The objective of a typical Index Fund states – ‘This Fund will invest in stocks
comprising the Nifty and in the same proportion as in the index’. The fund manager will not
indulge in research and stock selection, but passively invest in the Nifty 50 scrips only, i.e. 50
stocks which form part of Nifty 50, in proportion to their market capitalisation.
.MIDCAP FUNDS:
After largecap funds come the midcap funds, which invest in stocks belonging to
the mid cap segment of the market. Many of these midcaps are said to be the ‘emerging
bluechips’ or ‘tomorrow’s largecaps’. There can be actively managed or passively managed
m id cap funds. There are indices such as the CNX Midcap index which tracks the midcap
segment of the markets and there are some passively managed index funds investing in the
CNX Midcap companies.
SECTORAL FUNDS:
Funds that invest in stocks from a single sector or related sectors are called Sectoral
funds. Examples of such funds are IT Funds, Pharma Funds, Infrastructure Funds, etc.
Regulations do not permit funds to invest over 10% of their Net Asset Value in a single
company. This is to ensure that schemes are diversified enough and investors are not
subjected to undue risk. This regulation is relaxed for sectoral funds and index funds.
.Arbitrage Funds: These invest simultaneously in the cash and the derivatives market and
take advantage of the price differential of a stock and derivatives by taking opposite positions
in the two markets (for e.g. stock and stock futures).
ELSS:
Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS) are equity schemes, where investors get tax
benefit upto Rs. 1 Lakh under section 80C of the Income Tax Act. These are open ended
schemes but have a lock in period of 3 years. These schemes serve the dual purpose of equity
investing as well as tax planning for the investor; however it must be noted that cannot, under
any circumstances, get their money back before 3 years are over from the date of investment.
Fund of Funds:
These are funds which do not directly invest in stocks and shares but invest in units
of other mutual funds which they feel will perform well and give high returns. In fact such
funds are relying on the judgment of other fund managers.
Let us now look at the internal workings of an equity fund and what must an investor
know to make an informed decision.
AUM:
AUM is calculated by multiplying the Net Asset Value (NAV – explained in detail later) of a
scheme by the number of units issued by that scheme. A change in AUM can happen either
because of fall in NAV or redemptions. In case of sharp market falls, the NAVs move down,
because of which the AUMs may reduce.
NAV
Net Assets of a scheme is that figure which is arrived at after deducting all scheme
liabilities from its asset. NAV is calculated by dividing the value of Net Assets by the
outstanding number of Units.
EXPENSE RATIO
Among other things that an investor must look at before finalising a scheme, is that
he must check out the Expense Ratio. Expense Ratio Expense Ratio is defined as the ratio of
expenses incurred by a scheme to its Average Weekly Net Assets. It means how much of
investors money is going for expenses and how much is getting invested. This ratio should be
as low as possible.
Assume that a scheme has average weekly net assets of Rs 100 cr. and the scheme
incurs Rs. 1 cr as annual expenses, then the expense ratio would be 1/ 100 = 1%. In case this
scheme’s expense ratio is comparable to or better than its peers then this scheme would
qualify as a good investment, based on this parameter only.
If this scheme performs well and its AUM increases to Rs. 150 cr in the next year
whereas its annual expenses increase to Rs. 2 cr, then its expense would be 2/ 150 = 1.33%. It
is not enough to compare a scheme’s expense ratio with peers. The scheme’s expense ratio
must be tracked over different time periods. Ideally as net assets increase, the expense ratio of
a scheme should come down.
scheme and the fund managers’ outlook and style that determine the churningg
The scheme’s AUM can also have an impact on the performance of the scheme. In
case the scheme performs well and thereby attracts a lot of money flow, it may happen that
the fund manager may not be able to deploy that extra money successfully as he may not find
enough opportunities. Thus an increased fund size may result in lower returns. If the fund
manager tries to acquire significantly large quantities of a stock, the buying pressure may
lead to higher stock prices, thereby higher average cost for the scheme. Also, if the holdings
by the scheme in any stock are huge, then exit may be difficult as selling from the scheme
itself can put pressure on the prices. Thus the first share may be sold at a higher price and as
the supply increases the prices may fall, and the last share may get sold at a lower price.
A scheme with a very small AUM does not face these problems but has its own set
of problems. The Expense Ratio of such a scheme will be very high as expenses are
calculated as a percent of Average Weekly Net Assets. As the fund size increases, the
Expense Ratio tends to go down. Similarly Portfolio Turnover will be magnified as the
denominator (Average Net Assets) is small and hence the turnover appears to be very high.
The next logical point of focus must be the Cash Level in the scheme. The Cash level
is the amount of money the mutual fund is holding in Cash, i.e. the amount not invested in
stocks and bonds but lying in cash. If the scheme is having higher than industry average cash
levels consistently, more so in a bull market, it will lead to a inferior performance by the
scheme than its peers. However, in a falling market, it is this higher cash level that will
protect investor wealth from depleting. Hence whenever one is analyzing cash levels, it is
extremely important to see why the fund manager is sitting on high cash levels. It may be so
that he is expecting a fall therefore he is not committing large portions of monies.
EXIT LOADS
Exit Loads, are paid by the investors in the scheme, if they exit one of the scheme
before a specified time period.Exit Loads reduce the amount received by the investor. Not all
schemes have an Exit Load, and not all schemes have similar exit loads as well. Some
schemes have Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC). This is nothing but a modified
form of Exit Load, wherein the investor has to pay different Exit Loads depending upon his
investment period.
If the investor exits early, he will have to bear more Exit Load and if he remains invested
for a longer period of time, his Exit Load will reduce. Thus the longer the investor remains
invested, lesser is the Exit Load. After some time the Exit Load reduces to nil; i.e. if the
investor exits after a specified time period, he will not have to bear any Exit Load.
ADVANTAGES:
Diversification
One rule of investing, for both large and small investors, is asset diversification.
Diversification involves the mixing of different types of investments within a portfolio and is
used to manage risk. For example, choosing to buy stocks in the retail sector and offsetting
them with stocks in the industrial sector can reduce the impact of the performance of any one
security on your entire portfolio. To achieve a truly diversified portfolio, you may have to
buy stocks with different capitalizations from different industries and bonds with
varying maturities from different issuers. For the individual investor, this can be quite costly.
By purchasing mutual funds, you are provided with the immediate benefit of instant
diversification and asset allocation without the large amounts of cash needed to create
individual portfolios. One caveat, however, is that simply purchasing one mutual fund might
not give you adequate diversification. It's important to check if the fund is sector- or industry-
specific. For example, investing only in an oil and energy mutual fund might spread your
money over fifty companies, but if energy prices fall, your portfolio will likely suffer.
Economies of Scale:
The easiest way to understand economies of scale is by thinking about volume
discounts; in many stores, the more of one product you buy, the cheaper that product
becomes. For example, when you buy a dozen donuts, the price per donut is usually cheaper
than buying a single one. This also occurs in the purchase and sale of securities. If you buy
only one security at a time, the transaction fees will be relatively large.
Mutual funds are able to take advantage of their buying and selling volume to
reduce transaction costs for investors. When you buy a mutual fund, you are able to diversify
without the numerous commission charges. Imagine if you had to buy each of the 10-20
stocks needed for diversification. The commission charges alone would eat up a good chunk
of your investment. Take into account additional transaction fees for every time you want to
modify your portfolio, and as you can see the costs start to add up. With mutual funds, you
can make transactions on a much larger scale for less money.
Divisibility:
Many investors don't have the exact sums of money to buy round lots of securities. One
or two hundred dollars is usually not enough to buy a round lot of a stock, especially after
deducting commissions. Investors can purchase mutual funds in smaller denominations,
ranging from $100 to $1,000 minimums. Smaller denominations of mutual funds provide
mutual fund investors the ability to make periodic investments through monthly purchase
plans while taking advantage of dollar-cost averaging. So, rather than having to wait until you
have enough money to buy higher-cost investments, you can get in right away with mutual
funds. This provides an additional advantage - liquidity.
