This fund will be suitable for investors with moderately high-risk appetites as the fund manager of this scheme will allocate the capital towards debt and money market instruments along with some proportion towards equity and equity-related instruments. Investors who are willing to diversify their portfolios and wants the higher exposure of debt and lower exposure of equity in order to receive safe returns can consider investing in this fund. NFO is not the best option to invest in as there is no historical data available to track the performance. As this is not a new theme that the fund is offering, it’s better to invest in schemes that already have historical data. Otherwise, investors who are willing to invest should have a high-risk appetite.
