About this category

Balanced advantage funds invest in stocks, but hedge part of this exposure through derivatives. They also maintain a portion of their portfolio in debt instruments. These funds shift allocations to equity, derivatives and debt based on market movement and valuations. These funds offer lower-risk participation to equity and are less volatile than even aggressive hybrid funds.

Suitability

These funds suit all investors, but especially conservative investors who wish for low-volatile equity exposure. These funds need to be held for a minimum of 1.5 years.
