We use, what I may call, Option 4 - Constant Engagement Model, borne out with experience. Most of investors initially do not have exposure to Mutual Funds and are sceptical about it. Hence, initially we go by the Risk Profile may be with 100% debt allocation. However, in our 4-monthly reviews, we start recommending equity after One year. By that time they become comfortable with MFs and become open to equity suggestions too. Starting with Hybrid - Debt MFs, we slowly introduce them to Hybrid - Equity MFs. When they see the returns and find that these funds are fairly safe, they themselves mould their thinking to accommodate the idea of some equity MFs in the portfolio.
Sometimes, after 3-4 years, things even come to such a pass that we have to tell them not to insist on any more equity in their portfolio! | | | Name : Manju Mundhra | City : Kolkata | ARN NO : 36906 | Date : 08 Aug 2015 | Comments : | Great article to share | | | Name : Devdatta Dhanokar | City : Mumbai | ARN NO : 48302 | Date : 07 Aug 2015 | Comments : | Informative article. | | | Name : Sujit Shah | City : Mumbai | ARN NO : ARN-57474 | Date : 07 Aug 2015 | Comments : | Great Article!!
