FAQs On Liquid Mutual Funds

The returns from liquid funds are comparable to those from short-term fixed deposits. Liquid funds also offer benefits such as no lock-in period and no exit load after 7 days. So, liquid funds are better if you want liquidity and better returns. However, the returns from liquid funds are not guaranteed, while fixed deposits offer assured returns.

Online investment in liquid funds is safe if you choose a reputed platform, like ABCD, to invest.

No. Liquid funds are better known as short-term investment options, especially if you want to park your surplus funds for a short time before they come to use or are invested elsewhere for the long term. For long-term investments, you can choose long-term debt funds and benefit from higher returns.

Yes, liquid funds are a good option for parking emergency funds because of their high liquidity and relatively higher return potential than savings accounts and fixed deposits
