Timing the Market

When it comes to lump sum investing, individuals need to always look for Market timings especially with respect to equity-based funds.

Here, individuals should look for various parameters such as CAGR returns, Absolute returns, the impact of taxation and much more before investing in the scheme.

Redemption should be done at the Correct Time

Advantages

The advantages of Lump Sum investment are as follows.

  • Invest Big Amount: Individuals can invest big amounts in Mutual Funds and earn higher returns instead of keeping the funds idle.
  • Ideal for Long Term: Lump Sum mode of investment is good for long-term investments specially in case of equity funds. However, in case of debt funds, the tenure can be short or medium-term
  • Convenience: Lump sum mode of investment is convenient as the payment is done only once and is not deducted at regular intervals.

Disadvantages

The disadvantages of Lump Sum investment are:

  • Irregular Investment: Lump Sum investment does not ensure regular savings of an investor as it does not instil regular savings habit.
  • Higher Risk: In Lump Sum investing, it is important to look at the timings. This is because in lump sum mode the investment is done only once and not at regular intervals. Therefore, if individuals do not consider the timing, then they might end up in losses.

Conclusion

In addition, people should understand the scheme’s modalities before investing. If required, they can even consult a financial advisor. This will help them to ensure that their money is safe and their objectives are accomplished on time.
