A Systematic Investment Plan or SIP is a method of investing in mutual fund schemes. Investing in SIPs is a methodical and diligent approach preferred by several investors.
Here are some key benefits you get if you invest in mutual funds through the SIP route:
Everyone! Even if you have other investments, there are no good reasons to not invest in mutual funds using SIPs. The above-listed benefits will make it clear that having SIPs is a great way to invest and will work even for seasoned investors.
Essentially, anyone who is looking to create long term wealth and is not chasing a get rich quick scheme should invest using SIPs.
If you look at SIP returns over the past decade you will realize that no matter how severe a dip the market sees, mutual fund investments have almost always been safe and when it comes to those who invest even through the lows, mutual fund investments via the SIP route reap rich returns and dividends.
However, one must ensure they consult a wealth coach and only invest in mutual funds after clearly understanding their risk appetite, financial goals and needs.
To identify the best SIP Mutual Funds, you must take multiple things into account:
Broadly speaking, there are two simple ways of buying mutual funds in India – one where you invest a big amount in one go (Lump Sum Investment) & the other where you invest small yet substantial amounts at regular intervals (SIP). Let’s look at both of these a little more closely:
This is when you invest a large sum of money to buy mutual funds in one single transaction. This way you buy a big chunk of a mutual fund scheme that you believe will perform well in the long run.
A lump sum investment works well when the market is down or when you’re investing for the long term and have a good risk appetite. People generally do this when they receive a large sum of money from retirement or sale of a house etc.
However, most people can not afford to risk a large sum of money. Which is why they use Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs)
In this method of mutual fund investment you can give your bank a standing instruction to automatically debit a fixed amount of money from your account every month, quarter or year.
This fixed amount of money is invested in a mutual fund scheme of your choice. This is a more disciplined and hands-off approach to investing in mutual funds. You can use the Cube Wealth App to safely invest in Mutual Funds via the SIP route.
