These are the top-ranked funds within medium to long duration mutual funds.Medium to Long Duration Funds invest in debt and money market instruments such that the duration of the portfolio is between 3 to 4 years.
The tenure of the instruments held by these funds exposes them to very high degrees of variations when interest rate changes.Funds in this category tend to invest in instruments that are highly rated.This is a small category(less than 1 % of total debt fund assets).We do not recommend funds in this category since we believe that the potential incremental return is not justified by the higher interest rate risk.
The scheme seeks to generate income through investments in a range of debt and money market instruments while maintaining the optimum balance of yield, safety and liquidity.
