|

The first look-out before investing in any SIP is to analyze where is the fund manager investing your money. Before choosing the SIP, you much check the stocks where the fund is investing, portfolio, and AUM of the fund. There are multiple options regarding fund sizes, like a large-cap, small-cap, focussed fund, and flexi-cap, etc. This article will discuss the 4 best flexi-cap SIPs and the benefits of flexi-cap funds.

 

Benefits of Investing in Flexi cap funds

Benefits of Investing in Flexi cap funds

The most important benefit of investing in flexi-cap funds is it will offer you exposure to a broad equity spectrum. A flexi-cap fund can invest around 65% in equities, but it will have a larger orbit of market capitalization. Hence, the funds can invest in all types of stocks like large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap, without restrictions or limitations. It is known that large-cap funds are way more secured than other funds because of their steady returns and stable positions. But the small-cap funds generally fetch far better returns, both in the long term and short term, because they are developing companies. So, they will have a good scope of growth. So, a benefit of investing in a flexi-cap fund is it will offer you better security and good returns, rather than, in a focussed-cap fund.

If you are searching for funds where you can invest for at least 3-4 years with good returns, the flexi-cap funds can be ideal. However, there will always be risks involved with any kind of mutual fund/SIP/stock investment. With the movements of equity markets, your funds will perform. The first 2 below-mentioned funds were rated with 4 star, and the last 2 funds were rated with 5 star by rating agency Crisil.
