With access to 500+ SEBI-regulated schemes, investors can engage with India’s growth story with clarity and control, while Indus manages the cross-border compliance in the background. Indus is a registered financial services provider in New Zealand and SEBI Licensed in India.

What Are Mutual Funds?

Mutual funds are professionally managed investment vehicles that pool capital from multiple investors and allocate it across diversified assets such as equities, bonds, and hybrid portfolios. Instead of selecting individual stocks, investors gain access to a balanced, expertly curated portfolio. It is among the simplest methods of getting involved with the financial markets of India, without necessarily having to monitor or select individual investments.

Advantages of Investing in Mutual Funds

Mutual funds, including many of the top mutual funds, are widely preferred by NRIs and global investors because they simplify international investing while offering efficiency, diversification, and ease of management.

• Skilled Professionals: Your funds are now in the hands of professionally trained managers. They pay close attention to the markets and, thus, you don't need to keep track of all the action. • Diversification of Portfolio: Mutual funds do not keep your money in one exposure, which means that they invest money in various companies and industries. This helps to diversify the overall risk. • Flexible Investment Options: You can choose to invest a fixed sum on a monthly basis by investing in the form of SIPs or to make one large investment. • Easy to Start: You do not need a substantial sum of money to start. There are lots of funds with which you can start by investing comparatively small amounts of money. • Easy to Exit: Most mutual funds let you withdraw your money when needed, without long lock-in periods. • Clear & Transparent: You can easily monitor your fund performance with clear, regular updates and transparent reports.

Types of Mutual Funds You Can Explore

Indian mutual funds offer a broad spectrum of opportunities suited to different risk profiles and investment goals. For NZ-based NRIs and global investors, key categories of established mutual funds you will find at Indus include: • Large Cap Funds: Focus on India’s leading companies, offering relative stability and consistent growth. • Mid Cap Funds: Target emerging companies with strong long-term growth potential. • Small Cap Funds: Invest in high-growth smaller firms, suited to investors with a higher risk appetite. • Multi-Cap Funds: Allocate across large, mid, and small-cap stocks, delivering built-in diversification within equities. These options for the best-performing mutual funds allow investors to strategically balance risk, growth, and diversification within the Indian market.
