MUTUAL FUNDS
Tolani Institute of Management Studies
INTRODUCTION Mutual Fund is an investment vehicle that is made up of a
pool of funds collected from many investors for the purpose of investing in securities such as stocks, bonds, money market instruments and similar assets.
When an investor subscribes for the units of a mutual fund, he becomes part owner of the assets of the fund in the same proportion as his contribution amount put up with the corpus (the total amount of the fund). Mutual Fund investor is also known as a mutual fund shareholder or a unit holder.
