DSIJ Mindshare

Few years back, a lot of fintech companies appeared on the Indian financial landscape. Many of them were robo-advisory firms that wanted to automate the entire investing process for an investor.

The Indian equity markets have turned volatile in the last few months. In the same period, the Indian rupee has also depreciated against the US dollar. DSIJ explains how you can use International funds to diversify your portfolio and gain from the falling rupee. 

Mutual fund investments are assessed globally based on the fundamentals of the underlying and the suitability of the fund for an investor's risk-return profile. Some of the professional organisations around the world use five ‘P's, namely People, Process, Parent, Performance and Price, to select the right kind of mutual fund for investing. The reason these firms employ such methodology is because mutual fund investments are meant for the long term and these fundamental parameters help in assessing the fund's performance over the long run. 

Selecting The Right DEBT Mutual Fund Debt funds are as versatile as equity funds. DSIJ guides on how to use debt funds to complement your equity portfolio.
