11.Conclusion
Introduction The Indian Mutual fund industry has witnessed considerable growth since its inception in 1963.
The assets under management (AUM) have surged to Rs. 4,173bn in Mar-09 from just Rs. 250mn in Mar-65. In a span of 10 years (from 1999 to 2009), the industry has registered a CAGR of 22.3%, albeit encompassing some shortfalls in AUM due to business cycles.
The impressive growth in the Indian Mutual fund industry in recent years can largely be attributed to various factors such as rising household savings, comprehensive regulatory framework, favourable tax policies, introduction of several new products, investor education campaign and role of distributors.
Besides, SEBI has introduced various regulatory measures in order to protect the interest of small investors that augurs well for the long term growth of the industry.

Mutual funds are trusts that pools funds from public and invest in capital market in terms of shares, bonds, debentures etc.
A mutual fund collects savings from small investors that are invested in capital market instruments such as government and corporate securities. The income earned through these investments in the form of interest & dividends along with capital gains realised are shared by unit holders in proportion to the units owned by them. Any appreciation or depreciation in value of investments is reflected in net asset value (NAV) of the concerned scheme.

Investment area for Mutual Funds
MFs invest in a mostly three type of companies, they are the companies with,
Large market capitalisation (Large cap)
Medium market capitalisation (Mid cap)
Small market capitalization (Small cap)
Market Volatility
Market volatility means statistical measure of the market to rise or fall sharply in short period of time.
If the prices of a stock in a market fluctuate rapidly in a short time span, it is termed to have high market volatility. If the prices of a stock fluctuate slowly in a longer time span, it is termed to have low market volatility.
Volatility is typically measured by the standard deviation of the return of an investment. Standard deviation is a statistical concept that denotes the amount of variation or deviation that might be expected.
For example, it would be possible to see the Standard & Poor's BSE Sensex Index have a standard deviation of about 15%, while a more stable investment, such as a certificate of deposit (CD), will typically have a standard deviation of zero because the return never varies.

Conclusion
Its because of the fund’s (read mutual fund manager’s) vision for value that
has made it an outperformer each time.
Moreover, mutual funds not only offer investment solutions in practically any
market condition, but also, for any investment time frame, and for any type of
investor.
Hence, it would not be wrong to say that, mutual funds have the potential to
offer higher-than-market returns at lower-than-market risk.
And, as Fred Schwed Jr. says it in his book “Where Are The Customer's Yachts?”
“Speculation is an effort, probably unsuccessful, to turn a little money into a lot.
Investment is an effort, which should be successful, to prevent a lot of money from
becoming a little.”
