Amid sharp volatility in key Indian benchmark indices, investors are increasingly looking for balanced mutual fund schemes to get some risk cover. Balanced funds, which typically invest ~35% of assets in debt and the rest in equities, are considered ideal for those seeking this risk cover during heightened volatility. The category invests in equities when valuations are reasonable and books profits when the markets are rising, limiting risk and aiming to provide good returns. This strategy has resulted in the fund delivering 5.48% compared to -3.25% by Nifty 50 over the past 1 year.
