However, Scripbox does not recommend investing in medium term mutual funds.
Medium Duration Funds invest in debt and money market instruments such that the duration of the portfolio is between 3 to 4 years.This exposes them to higher variation when interest rates change.
This is a small category (less than 2% of the total debt fund assets).We assess the credit quality of funds in this category as relatively poor.We do not recommend funds in this category because of the higher credit risk and higher interest rate risk.
