Mutual funds are a type of financial vehicle (special purpose company) which is made up of a pool of money which has been invested by many investors. The investors invest their money in mutual funds so that it can be invested into securities like stocks, bonds, financial instruments and other investment options. Mutual funds give investors acess to a professionally managed, well diversified portfolio. The sharing ration in a mutual fund is proportionally to the amount of investment.
Most mutual funds operate with a specific objective and purpose and thus their investment portfolio reflects the stated objective. Mutual funds are managed by professional fund managers whose job is to invest the funds in the most efficient manner possible to maximize the gains for the investors participating in the fund.
Mutual funds give small or individual investors access to professionally managed portfolios of equities, bonds and other securities. Each shareholder, therefore, participates proportionally in the gains or losses of the fund. Mutual funds invest in a vast number of securities, and performance is usually tracked as the change in the total market cap of the fund—derived by the aggregating performance of the underlying investments.
Investors can invest in mutual funds for the short term or the long term, short term gains are low whereas long term gains are high because in the long term the money can be reinvested to produce exponentially increasing returns.
