Should you invest?

According to data from Value Research, large-cap equity funds, for example, have generated an average SIP return of 13.63 per cent over the last ten years which is undoubtedly much higher than that of PPF and even bank FDs. The current interest rate on PPF, on the other side, is 7.1 per cent. The Public Provident Fund (PPF) is one of the finest ways to save for old age. It has generally given higher interest rates than bank fixed deposits. Furthermore, the PPF interest rate is unstable, as the central government adjusts it every quarter. In this case, a diversified equity fund can be a good bet for your portfolio. Because the underlying companies are not strongly influenced by market swings, conservative investors may consider investing in the large-cap funds discussed above. As a result, they are less risky than small and midcap funds. Market risk is also included in large cap funds so before making a selection, investors must examine prior returns, investment purpose, expense ratio, exit load and AUM of the fund.
