3 mutual fund trends to show what FY19 meant for investors

Live Mint  

The financial year gone by, FY19, has been a landmark one for the mutual funds industry as well as investors. Interest rates rose sharply in the first two quarters of FY19, but moderated and reversed in the last two, spurring a rally in long-duration funds, even as their credit risk peers languished. On the other hand, smart beta ETFs tracking the Nifty Next 50, a collection of 50 companies immediately following the 50 largest listed companies, gave almost nil returns. In the credit risk category, for instance, Franklin India Credit Risk Fund gave 8.51%, while Invesco India Credit Risk Fund gave -3.11%. I would place credit risk funds squarely in this bucket,” said Deepali Sen, founder partner, Srujan Financial Advisers Llp, a financial planning firm.
