Liquid funds are the largest category of debt mutual funds. The credit events, as of September 2018, and its effect on the non-banking finance companies and housing finance companies caused money market rates to spike and investor withdrawals from liquid funds. On most days, daily returns of liquid funds do not deviate much from the portfolios’ yield to maturity net of expense. For such investors, the enhanced daily volatility in returns will eventually cancel out and investors may ultimately earn a return closer to the portfolio’s net YTM. Short term investors who are apprehensive about volatility in daily returns can park their money in such funds, even though YTM of such funds in lower than liquid funds.
