Which bank is the best bank to invest mutual funds?


Which bank is the best bank to invest mutual funds?

like the two answers before, I agree that you shouldn't use a bank. If you want to invest your money in mutual funds I would look at using a financial advisor to get the best answer. Otherwise you could look into something like Vanguard, Fidelity, Openheimer, Dreyfus, or Gartmore. They are all good companies. The reason I suggest a financial advisor is so you can take a risk assessment test to find out which would be the best for you. A lot of insurance agents are also licensed financial advisors (who don't charge extra for the service). You may want to start there.

No bank gives the best rate on mutual funds. You need to go to an investment broker.

BANK? You want to find a low cost No-Load mutual fund company like Vanguard or Fidelity.

Mutual funds are schemes launched by AMCs, ie, Assets Management Companies. So, not all mutual funds are launched by banks. Only a few of them are managed by bank associates. For example, SBIMF is different from SBI. PruICICI MF is different from ICICI Bank or PruICICI Insurance and so on. Bank managed schemes work well as bankers are the most experienced people in the field of finance. Specially in a nation like India, where MF is a new concept, banks can play a significant role. The MF concept was begun by UTI in 1960s. So, UTI is the most experienced player in this segment. UTI has got superb schemes to meet all your needs. Further, we have very good schemes from PruICICI, Now ICICI Prudential AMC. HDFC schemes are also very good. They are award winning schemes. The latest boom in this field by Reliance MF and Franklin Templeton MF. They are just rocking the markets. If you want to retrict your investmentments to banking companies, I would suggest you SBI MF which has been outstanding performer in this arena. The schemes like Magnum Taxgain, Midcap, etc have given astounding returns.

DON'T BUY MUTUAL FUNDS AT A BANK.

Don't buy them at a brokerage either.

Buy them at a company whose main focus is mutual funds. There are dozens of good ones. I've never had a problem with T.Rowe Price, but Fidelity, Vanguard, Founders, etc. are also very good as well.

Why do you need a bank to invest in mutual fund?

Mutual fund is a mechanism for pooling the resources by issuing units to the investors and investing funds in securities in accordance with objectives as disclosed in offer document.

Schemes according to Maturity Period: Open or Close Ended

Schemes according to Investment Objective: Equity/Debt/Balanced/Liquid/Gilt/Index etc

There are different mutual fund houses in india like Sundaram, Kotak, SBI Magnum, Fidelity, Franklin to name a few.
