A Comparative Study of Equity Mutual Funds between Reliance and Birla SunLifePriyank Agarwal
This project is based on the comparative analysis of the Indian Mutual Fund companies Reliance and Birla Sun Life, respectively. There are a lot of investment avenues available today in the financial market for an investor with an investable surplus. He can invest in Bank Deposits, Corporate Debentures, and Bonds where there is low risk but low return. He may invest in Stock of companies where the risk is high and the returns are also proportionately high. The recent trends in the Stock Market have shown that an average retail investor always lost with periodic bearish tends. People began opting for portfolio managers with expertise in stock markets who would invest on their behalf. Thus we had wealth management services provided by many institutions. However they proved too costly for a small investor. These investors have found a good shelter with the mutual funds.

Over a long term horizon, equity investments have given returns which far exceed those from the debt based instruments. They are probably the only investment option, which can build large wealth. In short term, equities exhibit very sharp volatilities, which many of us find difficult to stomach. Investment in equities requires one to be in constant touch with the market and a lot of research.
Buying good scripts require one to invest fairly large amounts. Systematic Investing in a Mutual Fund is the answer to preventing the pitfalls of equity investment and still enjoying the high returns. And it makes all the more sense today when the stock markets are booming.
Management of the fund by the professionals or experts is one of the key advantages of investing through a mutual fund. They regularly carry out extensive research - on the company, the industry and the economy – thus ensuring informed investment. Secondly, they regularly track the market.
Thus for many of us who do not have the desired expertise and are too busy with our vocation to devote sufficient time and effort to investing in equity, Mutual Funds offer an attractive alternative.
Another advantage of investing through mutual funds is that even with small amounts we are able to enjoy the benefits of diversification. Huge amounts would be required for an individual to achieve the
desired diversification, which would not be possible for many of us. Diversification reduces the overall impact on the returns from a portfolio, on account of a loss in a particular company/sector.
The Mutual Funds industry is well regulated both by SEBI and AMFI. They have, over the years, introduced regulations, which ensure smooth and transparent functioning of the mutual funds industry. This makes it safer and convenient for investors to invest through Mutual Funds.
One of the biggest difficulties in equity investing is WHEN to invest, apart from the other big question WHERE to invest. While, investing in a mutual fund solves the issue of ‘where’ to invest, SIP helps us to overcome the problem of ‘when’. SIP is a disciplined investing irrespective of the state of the market. It thus makes the market timing totally irrelevant.
The Risk and return analysis is important to equity shares investors in the share
market. The need of equity shares at the time of preliminary stage of company or

holder is an actual owner of company or bank.

A Study on the Performance of Mutual Fund Scheme in IndiaIJAEMSJORNAL
A mutual fund is a trust that encompasses the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciation realized is shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus, Mutual Fund is one of the most effective instruments for the small & medium investors for investment and offers opportunity to them to participate in capital market with low level of risk. It also provides the facility of diversification i.e. investors can invest across different types of schemes. Indian Mutual Fund has achieved a lot of popularity since last two decades. For a long time UTI enjoyed the monopoly in mutual fund industry. But with the passage of time many new players came in the market and thus the mutual fund industry faces a lot of competition. Now a day this industry has become the major player of the financial system. Therefore it becomes important to investigate the mutual fund performance at continuous basis. The wide variety of schemes floated by these mutual fund companies gave wide investment choice for the investors. Among wide variety of funds equity, diversified fund is considered as substitute for direct stock market investment. In present paper an attempt has been made to investigate the performance of the open ended, growth oriented, equity diversified schemes on the basis of return and risk evaluation. The analysis was achieved by assessing various financial tests like Average Return, Standard Deviation, Beta, Coefficient of Determination (R2), Alpha, Sharpe Ratio and Treynor Ratio whose results will be useful for investors for taking better investment decisions. The data has been taken from various websites of mutual fund schemes and from amfiindia.com. The analysis depicts that majority of funds selected for study have outperformed under Sharpe Ratio as well as Treynor Ratio.

Study on Mutual Fund is the Better Investment PlanProjects Kart
Mutual funds have become a hot favorite of millions of people all over the world. The driving force of mutual fund is the ‘safety of the principal’ guaranteed, plus the added advantage of capital appreciation together with the income earned in the form of interest or dividend. People prefer Mutual Funds to bank deposits, life insurance and even bond because with a little money, they can get into the investment game.

Thus, mutual funds act as a gateway to enter into big companies hitherto inaccessible to an ordinary investor with his small investment.

Influence of ADR on Underlying Stock PricesProjects Kart
Globalization has opened the door for the investors to avail various investment avenues across the globe. American Depository Receipt (ADR) is one such opportunity to the investing community. The ADR is a proxy for the Indian shares to enable them to be traded in the American stock exchanges. Various studies conducted on Depository Receipts (DRs) have shown that the trading on the DR sin the foreign market has its influence in the home country’s stock in terms of price, volatility and volume. This interested me and this project is concerned about studying “Whether the price fluctuations of ADR affect the corresponding Indian share prices?”
After the liberalization of the economy in 1991, the corporatist started sourcing their capital from both domestic and foreign markets. The Indian shares cannot be directly listed in the American stock exchanges. ADRs have been very helpful in this purpose. So a custodian bank receives the shares as deposit and issues receipt to the market. These receipts are issued in appropriate ratio to the shares deposited with the depository. The market players in the stock exchanges trade these receipts.
Impact of ERP on Organizational Functions in Retail SectorProjects Kart
The business environment has changed more in the last five years than it did in the previous five decades. Winning in today’s business climate requires more than just providing high-quality, low-cost products to customers, when and how the customers want them. The ability to respond to new customer needs and seize market opportunities as they arise, without compromising on the profitability of the firm is critical for the success of any organization. Competitive pressures frequently force manufacturers to decrease prices in spite of the fact that their internal costs continue to rise. Enterprises are continuously striving to improve themselves in the areas of quality, time to market, customer satisfaction, performance and profitability. Making informed business decisions in this manner would enable organizations to accomplish their business growth and at the same time enable them to utilize the information to competitive advantage. To make it possible for the companies to execute this vision, there is a need for an infrastructure that will provide information across all functions and locations within the organization and this is the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution available in the market today.

By 2004 the retail industry was growing rapidly in India, and Spencer's Retail decided to pursue an aggressive expansion strategy. The company had the customers, the products, and the employees to make it happen. It just needed an IT infrastructure that could support rapid growth. Visit http://www.projectskart.com/p/contact-us.html for more information. Current servers were at capacity, and the company needed to upgrade before adding new stores. Amit Mukerjee, Group CIO of the RPG Group, describes the challenge as part of the learning curve for retail development in India. ―Retailing is a new business in this country. As the business matures, the process matures, and IT systems must evolve accordingly. The company also needed an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution to handle critical processes such as supply-chain management. It decided to implement mySAP ERP, now called SAP ERP, and realized the solution needed to run on high-performance servers. Spencer's Retail evaluated several possibilities, including servers from HP, IBM, and Sun Microsystems. It decided to build its IT infrastructure on Sun systems for several reasons. Sun SPARC Enterprise Servers had the performance and scalability needed to sustain its business, and they delivered higher performance at less cost. Sun's knowledge of the retail space in India, as well as its long history with RGP Enterprises, were also deciding factors.

These factors include risk, return, volatility of shares and liquidity. The main
objective of comparing investment in equity shares with mutual fund schemes is to
analyze the performance of mutual funds with their benchmark and comparing them with
equities by using risk, return, beta and alpha as a parameter.
Historical data were taken for calculating risk, return, alpha and beta. Analysis has

The study will guide the new investor who wants to invest in equity and mutual
fund schemes by providing knowledge about how to measure the risk and return of

3. Finding the Volatility of shares by using beta.
4. Provide information about pros and cons of investing in Equity and Mutual Funds
portfolio management. The study is limited to compare equity capital and mutual fund
schemes in respect of their risk, return and liquidity. The study covers 5 randomly
selected stocks out of 30 BSE, 50 Sensex companies and 5 randomly selected mutual
fund schemes out of mutual fund industry in India for comparison. The analysis is strictly
based on share price and unit price information. Other company performance indicators
are not considered. It focuses on every month ending closing prices of during the period
from 1st Apr, 2003 to 31st Mar, 2007.
1.4 Scope of the Study
The project primarily deals with equity, derivatives, mutual funds. The scope of
the study of mutual funds is very large but my study is confined to only 4 AMC’s mutual
funds. This study confines as how mutual fund is good investment avenue for investors.
The study considers performance evaluation of mutual fund based on three measures that
are Jensen’s measures, Sharpe’s measures, and Treyor’s measures.

1.5 Research Methodology
The whole study can be termed as comparative study. It is also a desk research
hence; there is no field work and collection of primary date for this research.
The study centres on comparing equity and mutual fund schemes in respect of
their risk, return and liquidity. However, with the objective and scope of the study in
mind, it was decided to base the study on return series of selected stocks and mutual fund
schemes.
BSE being the premier exchange of India was chosen for selecting stocks. It is
widely accepted that BSE Sensex is the one of the most reliable index of the stock
exchange that reflects present day market condition. Since it is not possible to compare all
the 30 scripts in the index with all Mutual Fund Schemes due to time and resource
constraints, sampling techniques were considered. Randomly selected samples will
facilitate inference of the population, in our case BSE Sensex and mutual fund industry in
India. Hence by stratified random sampling 5 scrip’s out of 30 Sensex and 5 mutual fund
schemes out of whole mutual fund industry were selected.
The initial examination of the composition of index revealed that it is composed
of primarily two types of industries: manufacturing and services in the ratio of 3:2. there
for to give correct picture appropriate weight was assigned to manufacturing industries
and hence three scrip’s from manufacturing and two from service industries were
randomly selected and in case of mutual funds it consists basically large cap, mid cap,
small cap, sectorial funds and contra funds therefore one fund from each area were
selected.
Monthly share price and unit prices of the selected scrip’s and units were
collected from historical data. In order to avoid bias, at least three years monthly data was
decided to be necessary. The reference period is from 1st Apr, 2003 to 31st Mar, 2007.
1.51 SOURCES OF DATA
Meaning of primary data: In primary data collection, you collect the data yourself
using methods such as interviews and questionnaires. The key point here is that the data
you collect is unique to you and your research and, until you publish, no one else has
access to it.
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN

4. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Primary data: collected through face to face conversation with portfolio managers and
Brokers
Meaning of Secondary data: In research, secondary data is data collected and
possibly processed by people other than the researcher in question. Common sources of
secondary data for social science include censuses, large surveys, and organizational
records. In historical research secondary sources are summaries, collections, and
interpretations of primary sources.
Secondary data: Collected through Reports, Magazines, Publications, Newspapers,
Internet
Sampling technique:
The quality of research output and the validity of its findings depend upon
appropriateness of the sampling design selected for the study. It was needed to apply
inferential statistical analysis; hence probability sampling was chosen to be essential.
Criteria for Selecting Sampling Techniques
It is intended to generalize the finding based on the sample examination to the
population, therefore, probability sampling adopted in order to have a
representative sample.
Since the population is heterogeneous stratified random sampling was taken.
Probability sampling produces high degree of precision compared to non
probability sampling.

THEORITICAL FRAME WORK
2.1 Background of the study:
Introduction to Equity Capital and Mutual Fund
Issue of shares is the most important method of raising capital. Finance raised by
the issue of shares serves as a financial floor to the company’s capital structure. Shares
indicate the ownership or equity interest in the assets of the company. Shares are of
different nominal or face values and of different kinds to attract different kinds of
investors. The maximum amount of capital to be raised by the issue of shares is
mentioned in the memorandum of association.
During 1990-91 and 1991-92, equity accounts for 35 to 39 percent of the total
capital raised respectively. This proportion was reversed in 1992-93, the first year of free
pricing, when the share of equity increased to 62 percent. His share of equity finance
increased to a high of 73.18 percent in 1994-95. However, in 1995-96 there is a rise in the
importance of debt largely due to the high interest rates in the economy and negative
returns from the secondary market.
The mutual fund industry in India started in 1964 with the formation of Unit Trust
of India, at the initiative of the Government of India. The 1993 SEBI Regulations were
substituted by a more comprehensive and revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996.
The end of millennium marks 36 years of existence of mutual funds in this
country. The ride through these 36 years is not been smooth. Investor opinion is still
divided. While some are for mutual funds others are against it. UTI commenced its
operations from July 1964.
The impetus for establishing a formal institution came from the desire to increase
the propensity of the middle and lower groups to save and to invest. UTI came in to
existence during a period marked by great political and economic turmoil that depressed
the financial market; entrepreneurs were rather hesitant to enter the capital markets.
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN

2.2 Concept of Equity Capital and Mutual Fund
The term Equity literally means the stock or ownership of a company. They are
also known as ordinary shares. The rate of dividend on equity shares varies according to
the amount of profit available and the intention of board of directors. In the event of
winding up of the company, equity shares can be refunded only after all other claims,
including those of preference shares for the refund of their capital, have been met.
Equity capital or financing is money raised by a business in exchange for a share
of ownership in the company. Ownership is represented by owning shares of stock
outright or having the right to convert other financial instruments into stock of that private
company. Two key sources of equity capital for new and emerging businesses are angel
investors and venture capital firms.
Equity capital is represented by funds that are raised by a business, in exchange
for a share of ownership in the company. Equity financing allows a business to obtain
funds without incurring debt, or without having to repay a specific amount of money at a
particular time.
The Equity Capital Markets Group (ECM) oversees the Firm's activities in the primary
equity and equity-linked markets, as well as monetization and equity derivatives. It
provides support in the origination of primary market transactions and manages their
structuring, syndication, marketing and distribution.
The world over, it’s been shown that over long tenures, equities–with their risk
premier–have provided approximately 7 percentage points higher returns than risk-free
options. People have to accumulate significant amounts of wealth during their working
years. Right now, a 17-year bond gives you only 5.5 per cent. So, it is imperative that
these people have some exposure to equity.
A mutual fund is a trust that pools the money of many investors – its shareholders
-- to invest in a variety of different securities. Investments may be in stocks, bonds,
money market securities or some combination of these. Those securities are
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
8
9. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
professionally managed on behalf of the shareholders, and each investor holds a pro rata
share of the portfolio -- entitled to any profits when the securities are sold, but subject to
any losses in value as well.
A mutual fund is a group of investors operating through a fund manager to
purchase a diverse portfolio of stocks or bonds. There are myriad kinds of mutual funds,
each with its own goals and methodologies. Whether or not a mutual fund is a good
investment is a matter of much public debate, with many claiming they are excellent for
the average person, and others saying they are simply a poor way to invest.
For the individual investor, mutual funds provide the benefit of having someone
else manage your investments, take care of recordkeeping for your account, and diversify
your rupees over many different securities that may not be available or affordable to you
otherwise. Today, minimum investment requirements on many funds are low enough that
even the smallest investor can get started in mutual funds.
A mutual fund, by its very nature, is diversified -- its assets are invested in many
different securities. Beyond that, there are many different types of mutual funds with
different objectives and levels of growth potential, furthering your chances to diversify.
Many critics of mutual funds point out that scarcely over 20% of mutual funds
outperform the Standard and Poor's 500 Index. This means that nearly 80% of the time,
an investor would have been more profitable by simply buying equal shares in all 500 of
the companies currently on the S&P 500.
2.21 Schemes of Mutual funds
Schemes according to Maturity Period:
A mutual fund scheme can be classified into open-ended scheme or close-ended
scheme depending on its maturity period.
Open-ended Scheme:
An open-ended fund or scheme is one that is available for subscription and
repurchase on a continuous basis. These schemes do not have a fixed maturity period.
Investors can conveniently buy and sell units at Net Asset Value (NAV) related prices
which are declared on a daily basis. The key feature of open-end schemes is liquidity.
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
9
10. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Close-ended Scheme:
A close-ended fund or scheme has a stipulated maturity period e.g. 5-7 years. The
fund is open for subscription only during a specified period at the time of launch of the
scheme. Investors can invest in the scheme at the time of the initial public issue and
thereafter they can buy or sell the units of the scheme on the stock exchanges where the
units are listed.
In order to provide an exit route to the investors, some close-ended funds give an
option of selling back the units to the mutual fund through periodic repurchase at NAV
related prices. SEBI Regulations stipulate that at least one of the two exit routes is
provided to the investor i.e. either repurchase facility or through listing on stock
exchanges. These mutual funds schemes disclose NAV generally on weekly basis.
Schemes according to Investment Objective:
A scheme can also be classified as growth scheme, income scheme, or balanced
scheme considering its investment objective. Such schemes may be open-ended or close-
ended schemes as described earlier. Such schemes may be classified mainly as follows:
Growth / Equity Oriented Scheme:
The aim of growth funds is to provide capital appreciation over the medium to
long- term. Such schemes normally invest a major part of their corpus in equities. Such
funds have comparatively high risks. These schemes provide different options to the
investors like dividend option, capital appreciation, etc. and the investors may choose an
option depending on their preferences.
Income / Debt Oriented Scheme:
The aim of income funds is to provide regular and steady income to investors.
Such schemes generally invest in fixed income securities such as bonds, corporate
debentures, Government securities and money market instruments. Such funds are less
risky compared to equity schemes. These funds are not affected because of fluctuations in
equity markets.
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
10
11. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Balanced Scheme:
The aim of balanced funds is to provide both growth and regular income as such
schemes invest both in equities and fixed income securities in the proportion indicated in
their offer documents. These are appropriate for investors looking for moderate growth.
They generally invest 40-60% in equity and debt instruments. These funds are also
affected because of fluctuations in share prices in the stock markets. However, NAVs of
such funds are likely to be less volatile compared to pure equity funds.
Money Market or Liquid Fund:
These funds are also income funds and their aim is to provide easy liquidity,
preservation of capital and moderate income. These schemes invest exclusively in safer
short-term instruments such as treasury bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper
and inter-bank call money, government securities, etc. Returns on these schemes fluctuate
much less compared to other funds. These funds are appropriate for corporate and
individual investors as a means to park their surplus funds for short periods.
Gilt Fund:
These funds invest exclusively in government securities. Government securities
have no default risk. NAVs of these schemes also fluctuate due to change in interest rates
and other economic factors as is the case with income or debt oriented schemes.
Index Funds:
Index Funds replicate the portfolio of a particular index such as the BSE Sensitive
index, S&P NSE 50 index (Nifty), etc, these schemes invest in the securities in the same
weightage comprising of an index. NAV’s of such schemes would rise or fall in
accordance with the rise or fall in the index, though not exactly by the same percentage
due to some factors known as "tracking error" in technical terms. Necessary disclosures in
this regard are made in the offer document of the mutual fund scheme.
Sector Specific Schemes:
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
11
12. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
These are the funds/schemes which invest in the securities of only those sectors or
industries as specified in the offer documents. e.g. Pharmaceuticals, Software, Fast
Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Petroleum stocks, etc. The returns in these funds are
dependent on the performance of the respective sectors/industries.
Tax Saving Schemes:
These schemes offer tax rebates to the investors under specific provisions of the
Income Tax Act, 1961 as the Government offers tax incentives for investment in specified
avenues. e.g. Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS). Pension schemes launched by the
mutual funds also offer tax benefits. These schemes are growth oriented and invest pre-
dominantly in equities. Their growth opportunities and risks associated are like any equity
oriented scheme.
2.3 Advantages of Equity Capital and Mutual Fund:
Advantages of Equity Capital:
1. High dividend and high value:-
In times of prosperity, the equity shareholders get a very high rate of dividend,
sufficiently higher than that on preference shares. At the same time, their share value will
also go up in the market.
2. Voting rights:-
It is only the equity shareholders who enjoy voting rights on all the policy matters
of the company.
3. Pre-emptive right to new shares:-
Equity shareholders have the pre-emptive right to purchase new shares. Under the
provisions of the companies act, the existing shareholders of the company have a right to
allotment of newly issued shared.
4. Many privileges and rights:-
Equity shareholders enjoy many privileges and rights. For example, they can vote
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
12
13. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
at meetings, elect directors, control the directors to run the company efficiently and
profitably, look into the books and records of the company and transfer or sell their
shareholdings.
2.31 Advantages of Mutual Fund:
1. Professional Investment Management:-
By pooling the funds of thousands of investors, mutual funds provide full-time,
high-level professional management that few individual investors can afford to obtain
independently. Such management is vital to achieving results in today's complex markets.
Your fund managers' interests are tied to yours, because their compensation is based not
on sales commissions, but on how well the fund performs.
2. Diversification:-
Mutual funds invest in a broad range of securities. This limits investment risk by
reducing the effect of a possible decline in the value of any one security. Mutual fund
shareowners can benefit from diversification techniques usually available only to
investors wealthy enough to buy significant positions in a wide variety of securities.
3. Low Cost:-
If you tried to create your own diversified portfolio of 50 stocks, you'd need at
least Rs.1, 00,000 and you'd pay thousands of rupees in commissions to assemble your
portfolio. A mutual fund lets you participate in a diversified portfolio for as little as
Rs.10, 000, and sometimes less. And if you buy a no-load fund, you pay or no sale
charges to own them.
4. Convenience and Flexibility:-
You own just one security rather than many, yet enjoy the benefits of a diversified
portfolio and a wide range of services. Fund managers decide what securities to trade, clip
the bond coupons, collect the interest payments and see that your dividends on portfolio
securities are received and your rights exercised.
5. Quick, Personalized Service:-
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
13
14. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Most funds now offer extensive websites with a host of shareholder services for
immediate access to information about your fund account. Or a phone call puts you in
touch with a trained investment specialist at a mutual fund company who can provide
information you can use to make your own investment choices, assist you with buying
and selling your fund shares.
6. Ease of Investing:-
You may open or add to your account and conduct transactions or business with
the fund by mail, telephone or bank wire. You can even arrange for automatic monthly
investments by authorizing electronic fund transfers from your checking account in any
amount and on a date you choose.
7. Total Liquidity, Easy Withdrawal:-
You can easily redeem your shares anytime you need cash by letter, telephone,
bank wire or check, depending on the fund. Your proceeds are usually available within a
day or two.
8. Life Cycle Planning:-
With no-load mutual funds, you can link your investment plans to future
individual and family needs -- and make changes as your life cycles change. You can
invest in growth funds for future college tuition needs, then move to income funds for
retirement, and adjust your investments as your needs change throughout your life.
9. Market Cycle Planning:-
For investors who understand how to actively manage their portfolio, mutual fund
investments can be moved as market conditions change. You can place your funds in
equities when the market is on the upswing and move into money market funds on the
downswing or take any number of steps to ensure that your investments are meeting your
needs in changing market climates.
10. Investor Information:-
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
14
15. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Shareholders receive regular reports from the funds, including details of
transactions on a year-to-date basis. The current net asset value of your shares (the price
at which you may purchase or redeem them) appears in the mutual fund price listings of
daily newspapers. You can also obtain pricing and performance results for the all mutual
funds at this site, or it can be obtained by phone from the fund.
11. Periodic Withdrawals:-
If you want steady monthly income, many funds allow you to arrange for monthly
fixed checks to be sent to you, first by distributing some or all of the income and then, if
necessary, by dipping into your principal.
12. Dividend Options:-
You can receive all dividend payments in cash. Or you can have them reinvested
in the fund free of charge, in which case the dividends are automatically compounded.
This can make a significant contribution to your long-term investment results.
13. Automatic Direct Deposit:-
You can usually arrange to have regular, third-party payments -- such as Social
Security or pension checks -- deposited directly into your fund account. This puts your
money to work immediately, without waiting to clear your checking account, and it saves
you from worrying about checks being lost in the mail.
14. Recordkeeping Service:-
With your own portfolio of stocks and bonds, you would have to do your own
recordkeeping of purchases, sales, dividends, interest, short-term and long term gains and
losses. Mutual funds provide confirmation of your transactions and necessary tax forms to
help you keep track of your investments and tax reporting.
15. Safekeeping:-
When you own shares in a mutual fund, you own securities in many companies
without having to worry about keeping stock certificates in safe deposit boxes or sending
them by registered mail. You don't even have to worry about handling the mutual fund
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
15
16. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
stock certificates; the fund maintains your account on its books and sends you periodic
statements keeping track of all your transactions.
16. Retirement and College Plans:-
Mutual funds are well suited to Individual Retirement Accounts and most funds
offer IRA-approved prototype and master plans for individual retirement accounts (IRAs)
and Keogh, 403(b), SEP-IRA and 401(k) retirement plans.
17. Online Services:-
The internet provides a fast, convenient way for investors to access financial
information. A host of services are available to the online investor including direct access
to no-load companies. Visit Company Links to access these Companies.
18. Sweep Accounts:-
With many funds, if you choose not to reinvest your stock or bond fund dividends,
you can arrange to have them swept into your money market fund automatically. You get
all the advantages of both accounts with no extra effort.
19. Asset Management Accounts:-
These master accounts, available from many of the larger fund groups, enable you
to manage all your financial service needs under a single umbrella from unlimited check
writing and automatic bill paying to discount brokerage and credit card accounts.
2.32 Disadvantages of Equity Capital and Mutual Fund
Disadvantages of Equity Capital:
1. No refund of capital:-
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
16
17. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
Since equity shares cannot be refunded, excessive issue of such shares may leads
to overcapitalization, particularly when the earning capacity of the company declining.
2. Benefits only in prosperity:-
During the periods of prosperity, the company has to distribute heavy dividends
on these shares.
3. Manipulation of control:-
Since the equity shares have proportionate voting power, the company’s
management may be vitiated by manipulation of votes, clique-formation, abuse of proxy
rights etc.
4. High risk:-
Equity share holders cannot claim dividend as a matter of right, because the
decision to fit the rate of dividend on equity shares is vested in the Board of Directors.
Therefore investors as a class may find equity shares unsafe, unattractive and
unremunerated.
5. Unhealthy Speculation:-
During the period of boom, the market value of shares will go up, which leads to
unhealthy speculation in the stock market.
Disadvantages of Mutual Fund:
There are certainly some benefits to mutual fund investing, but you should also be
aware of the drawbacks associated with mutual funds.
1. No Insurance:-
Mutual funds, although regulated by the government, are not insured against
losses. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) only insures against certain
losses at banks, credit unions, and savings and loans, not mutual funds. That means that
despite the risk-reducing diversification benefits provided by mutual funds, losses can
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
17
18. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
occur, and it is possible (although extremely unlikely) that you could even lose your
entire investment.
2. Dilution:-
Although diversification reduces the amount of risk involved in investing in
mutual funds, it can also be a disadvantage due to dilution. For example, if a single
security held by a mutual fund doubles in value, the mutual fund itself would not double
in value because that security is only one small part of the fund's holdings. By holding a
large number of different investments, mutual funds tend to do neither exceptionally well
nor exceptionally poorly.
3. Fees and Expenses:-
Most mutual funds charge management and operating fees that pay for the fund's
management expenses (usually around 1.0% to 1.5% per year). In addition, some mutual
funds charge high sales commissions, 12b-1 fees, and redemption fees. And some funds
buy and trade shares so often that the transaction costs add up significantly. Some of these
expenses are charged on an ongoing basis, unlike stock investments, for which a
commission is paid only when you buy and sell (see Investor Guide University: Fees and
Expenses).
4. Poor Performance:-
Returns on a mutual fund are by no means guaranteed. In fact, on average, around
75% of all mutual funds fail to beat the major market indexes, like the S&P 500, and a
growing number of critics now question whether or not professional money managers
have better stock-picking capabilities than the average investor.
5. Loss of Control:-
The managers of mutual funds make all of the decisions about which securities to
buy and sell and when to do so. This can make it difficult for you when trying to manage
your portfolio. For example, the tax consequences of a decision by the manager to buy or
sell an asset at a certain time might not be optimal for you. You also should remember
that you trust someone else with your money when you invest in a mutual fund.
H.R.I.H.E. HASSAN
18
19. Performance Evaluation of Equity shares & Mutual Funds
6. Trading Limitations:-
Although mutual funds are highly liquid in general, most mutual funds (called
open-ended funds) cannot be bought or sold in the middle of the trading day. You can
only buy and sell them at the end of the day, after they've calculated the current value of
their holdings.
7. Size:-
Some mutual funds are too big to find enough good investments. This is
especially true of funds that focus on small companies, given that there are strict rules
about how much of a single company a fund may own. If a mutual fund has $5 billion to
invest and is only able to invest an average of $50 million in each, then it needs to find at
least 100 such companies to invest in as a result, the fund might be forced to lower its
standards when selecting companies to invest in.
8. Inefficiency of Cash Reserves:-
Mutual funds usually maintain large cash reserves as protection against a large
number of simultaneous withdrawals. Although this provides investors with liquidity, it
means that some of the fund's money is invested in cash instead of assets, which tends to
lower the investor's potential return.
9. Different Types:-
The advantages and disadvantages listed above apply to mutual funds in general.
However, there are over 10,000 mutual funds in operation, and these funds vary greatly
according to investment objective, size, strategy, and style. Mutual funds are available for
virtually every investment strategy (e.g. value, growth), every sector (e.g. biotech,
internet), and every country or region of the world. So even the process of selecting a
fund can be tedious.
