| What are they? |
Income funds that invest in fixed Income instruments of very short maturity (less than one year).
They have no exposure to equities and also have no mark to market* exposure. And are among the least risky type of funds.
|
Income funds that invest in fixed income instruments of higher maturity than liquid funds.
They can have
significant mark-to-market*
exposure and hence can face significant short term volatility.
|
Income funds that actively take a stance on interest rates and hence look to earn returns from interest income and capital gains/losses through mark to market *exposures. |
