Summary |
Mutual Funds and Retirement Planning covers mutual funds, exchange traded funds, and retirement plans. While mutual funds have been a popular investment vehicle and an important component of the indirect financial market in India for two decades, their shortcomings are addressed by a new category of funds known as exchange traded funds available on stock indices and gold. Pension plans on the other hand serve net to meet the old-age requirements of the country’s growing workforce.
The book covers:
• Fundamentals and types of mutual funds (both open and close-end) and exchange traded funds
• Services offered by mutual funds and investment strategies
• Retirement plans: defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans
The book will be useful for students of finance and professionals particularly those in the BFSI domain of IT.
