Who Should Invest?

These are general criteria, but they will give you a fair idea if equity funds are the right option for you.

Equity funds are right for investors looking for capital growth.
Investors with long-term financial goals can consider investing in equity funds. Having said that, equity funds are more suitable for young investors, as they have a higher risk appetite and can spend more time in the market to make up for any losses.
Investing in stocks involves risks; hence, equity funds have higher risks than debt funds.

Who Should Invest?

Debt funds are designed to offer low-risk returns. As a result, these funds can be used to improve the stability of a mutual fund portfolio or act as a hedge against equity market volatility. Some points to note:

New investors can invest in debt funds to earn higher returns while protecting themselves from equity market volatility.
Debt funds are suitable for you if you are risk-averse and looking for an investment that will offer principal protection along with predictable risks.
Debt funds are an excellent option when you need to park your money for the short term. These funds help you earn higher returns than traditional fixed-income instruments.
Debt funds can stabilise your portfolio, helping you balance your exposure to equity funds.
