Samriddhi Volume 06 Edition 09 by ABSLMF
In today’s evolving financial landscape, understanding Saving vs Investment is essential. Many people ask, “Are savings an investment?” or seek the difference between savings and investment explained simply. While both play important roles, they serve different purposes. Saving protects money for emergencies and short-term needs, while investment helps grow wealth and beat inflation over time.
Using familiar options like Public Provident Fund (PPF), Equity Linked Savings Scheme (ELSS), debt funds, and balanced funds, the Saving vs Investment guide explains how to build a strong financial foundation. With better financial literacy, goal-based planning, and disciplined investing, you can work toward a more secure future.
Key Insights:
• Savings ≠ Investments: Savings keep money safe but may lose value due to inflation.
• Hierarchy of financial needs: Start with an emergency fund, add term insurance, then begin investing.
• Match time horizon and risk appetite: Use debt funds for short-term goals and ELSS or equity mutual funds for long-term growth.
• Keep a balanced approach: A mix of equity and fixed-income funds can reduce risk.
• Use a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) to invest regularly and avoid market timing.
Takeaways:
• Relying only on savings won’t help you build wealth - you need to invest to stay ahead of inflation.
• Always build your emergency fund and buy term insurance before looking for high returns.
• Pick the right fund based on your goals and how much risk you’re comfortable with.
• Avoid overcomplicating: A few well-chosen funds like balanced, multi-cap funds, and debt funds can be enough.
• Stay disciplined and keep investing until you reach your goals or need to review performance.
