Dynamic Bond Funds are basically debt funds in which fund managers have the flexibility to select the portfolio duration. This helps in situations such as interest rate fluctuations. For example, when interest rates are expected to increase, the fund manager can add investments to short-tenure debt securities since they are less impacted by interest rate risks.
Dynamic Bond Funds give managers the opportunity to move the investment duration around as per interest rate fluctuation predictions. For example, the manager can buy a greater number of short-term and medium-term instruments and reduce gilt holdings. They could also increase the investment in high-rated corporate bonds, aiming at high accrual income.
Dynamic Bond Funds invest majorly in bonds (government, municipal, corporate, convertible) and other debt instruments, such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS).
Since Dynamic Bond Funds are medium-level-risk funds, new investors should invest in them only if their risk appetite matches.
Dynamic Bond Funds are moderately risky. So if you decide to invest in one, make sure that you are aware of the risk-reward ratio.
