Equity funds are best suited for investing over a long term – in excess of 5 years. The stock market goes through cyclical ups and downs and statistically, equity investments tend to earn better returns over the long term, across several market cycles. For shorter periods, our income solutions or savings solutions may be better suited.

For e.g.: large cap funds invest in stocks of larger and established companies – they may thus carry a lower risk than small and mid-cap funds. Thus, fund type can be chosen depending on whether you are an aggressive or conservative investor.
