Reliance Mutual Fund Offers Embedded Financial Planning Solutions

Investments have come a long way today from traditional investments in precious metals and
stones to savings accounts, fixed deposits, stocks and Mutual Funds.
Mutual Funds are an important part of the entire financial system and are seen as
suitable investment for the common man as they offer an opportunity to invest in a
diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.

Advantages of Mutual Funds

 Professional Management

 Diversification of risks

 Opportunity to earn market related returns

 Ease of liquidity

 Transparency

 Affordability: Investors individually may lack sufficient funds to invest in high-grade

stocks. A mutual fund because of its large corpus allows even a small investor to take the
benefit of its investment strategy.

 Wider choice of options depending upon the investment objective, risk profile and
investment period

 Regulated by SEBI

The mutual fund industry has also evolved over a period of time. Just the way the industry
has witnessed increase in the no of players, in the same way, it has seen a continuous
launch of a variety of mutual funds which in turn have created lot many categories such
as balanced funds, index funds, short term bond funds, theme based funds & others. As a
result this has left the investors in a state of confusion.

Therefore in this fast moving competitive world, “appropriate planning” (through an ideal
asset allocation mix) becomes even more significant than “actual investing” itself.

Hence it is aptly said;

1
 “An investor without an investment objective is like a traveler
without a destination”
- Ralph Seger

Moreover today investors are perplexed over the ideal investment portfolio. Therefore,
the best way to look at this would be to integrate the basic principles of investing while
devising an appropriate investment strategy considering his objectives & risk return
profile.

5 Golden Rules of Investing led us to the basic principles of investing

 Recognize your life stage and unique financial requirement
 Understand your Risk-taking ability
 Look for investments that give you positive ‘real’ returns
 Decide on your Investment horizon
 Plan savings and investment to achieve these goals

This can be done with the help of a process known as

“Financial Planning”

Financial Planning is a continues process that involves planning and control over

your personal financial practices focusing on your financial goals in

synchronization with your risk profile

2
 This leads us to the basic investment principles which you must ensure while taking investment
decisions;

Objective oriented investing

All your investments decisions

should be in line with your
short term & long term
financial goals & objectives

Asset Allocation

It is about having a strategic mix of various asset classes. It is

important to follow suitable asset allocation model according to your
risk appetite and return expectations

Portfolio Review & Rebalancing

Regular Review & re- alignment of the investment portfolio is critical to achieve financial goals

Role of Financial Advisor: People enlist the help of a financial planner because of the
following expertise they have;

• Providing in depth knowledge and understanding of the financial products

• Providing direction and meaning to financial decisions;
• Allowing the person to understand how each financial decision affects the other areas of
finance; and
• Allowing the person to adapt more easily to life changes in order to feel more secure

Before proceeding with asset allocation model, one has to understand his risk return profile
which is highly influenced by the following parameters;

 Age of the Investor

 Investment Horizon

 Financial Goal (long term & short term)

 Cash Flow

4
  Family Dependents

 Level of Acceptance of loss

Accordingly the risk return profile of the investors will be categorized into

Aggressive Investor, Moderate Investor and Conservative Investor

Thus, keeping in mind the risk return profile and the vast choice of investment arena it is
advisable to have an asset allocation strategy for various asset classes based on age. Thus,
for an investor between the age of 45 – 60 years, his investment decisions would be
relatively risk - averse as compared to a young investor between the age of 20 – 35 years.
Hence, in order to map the proposed allocation of funds in different asset classes
with the investor’s risk profile, an asset allocation model has been formulated for
all type of investors.

The below mentioned model is based on age – investment principle, which

recommends that the portion of relatively less risky asset class of an investor’s portfolio
should be equal to his age and the balance should be invested in relatively more risky asset
class. For example, a 30 year old investor should invest 30% in relatively less risky asset
class and 70% in relatively more risky asset class.

Asset Allocation Conservative (%) Moderate (%) Aggressive (%)

Equity Asset Class 30 55 70

Fixed Income Asset Class 70 45 30

Total 100 100 100

The above mentioned asset allocation model has been derived using established theories
on risk and return. The asset allocation model is purely indicative and notional. Readers
are advised to seek appropriate independent professional advice and arrive at an
informed investment decision before making any investments.

5
 Accordingly the asset classes can be further categorized as follows;

 Money Market Funds (MMF- Liquid Funds)

These funds provide easy liquidity and preservation of capital. These schemes invest in
short-term instruments like Treasury Bills, inter-bank call money market, CPs and CDs
with the average maturity not exceeding more than 3 months. These funds are meant for
short-term cash management of corporate houses and are meant for an investment
horizon of 1day to 1 month. These schemes rank low on risk-return matrix and are
considered to be the safest amongst all categories of mutual funds
 Ultra Short Term Funds (UST)
The ultra short term category funds are also suitable for cash management and easy
liquidity needs with the endeavor of giving returns higher than the Liquid category. The
major difference between the liquid and ultra short term fund categories is based on the
tenure of maturity of papers held in the portfolio & the mark to market component of the
securities held.
 Short Term Funds (ST)
It is meant for investment horizon for six months to 1 year. These funds primarily invest
in short term papers like Certificate of Deposits (CDs) and Commercial Papers (CPs).
Some portion of the corpus is also invested in corporate debentures.
 Long Term Funds (LTF)
Long duration schemes include Income Funds and Gilt Funds.
• Income Fund aim to provide regular and steady income to investors. These schemes
generally invest in fixed income securities such as bonds and corporate debentures.
Capital appreciation in such schemes may be limited.
• Gilt Fund Invest their corpus in securities issued by Government, popularly known as
Government of India debt papers. These Funds carry zero Default risk but are
associated with Interest Rate risk. These schemes are safer as they invest in papers
backed by Government.
 Monthly Income Plans (MIP)
This type of funds invests maximum of their total corpus in debt instruments while they
take minimum exposure in equities. It gets benefit of both equity and debt market. These

6
scheme ranks slightly high on the risk-return matrix when compared with other debt
schemes.

 Balanced Funds (Balanced)

Balanced Schemes aim to provide both growth and income by periodically distributing a
part of the income and capital gains they earn. These schemes invest in both shares and
fixed income securities
 Equity Diversified Funds (Eq Div)
Growth Schemes are also known as equity schemes which are further sub categorized as
Largecap, Midcap and Multicap funds. The aim of these schemes is to provide capital
appreciation over medium to long term. These schemes normally invest a major part of
their fund in equities and are willing to bear short-term decline in value for possible future
appreciation.
 Diversified Large Cap Funds : Pre dominantly invests in constituents of broad
market indices like BSE Sensex/ S&P Nifty/BSE 100.
 Diversified Mid Cap Fund – Pre dominantly invests in constituents of indices like
BSE Mid Cap/ CNX MidCap/ BSE 200.
 Diversified Multi Cap Funds: Pre dominantly invests in companies across all
market cap & sectors.
 Sector Funds (Sector)
These are the funds/schemes which invest in the securities of only those sectors or
industries as specified in the scheme information documents. e.g. Pharmaceuticals,
Software, Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Petroleum stocks, etc. The returns in
these funds are dependent on the performance of the respective sectors/industries. While
these funds may give higher returns, they are more risky compared to diversified funds.

7
For a better understanding of the same, it is imperative to position different asset
classes, basis Risk, Return & Investment Horizon, as shown below in the graph.

High
C
*Investment Profile of the respective category **Risk profile of the category

How to read the above graph?

For example, proposed investment horizon for MIP category is 1 – 2 years with moderate
investment risk profile of the scheme having comparatively higher risk -return than duration
debt funds and money market funds

Taking a step further, the asset allocation strategy can even be applied within
different categories of equity and debt respectively, so as to map the proposed
allocation of funds in different categories with the investor’s risk profile.
