The fund is meant to be an all-season fund, seeking to optimize returns from interest rate movements.
IDBI Mutual Fund today announced the launch of its open-ended, diversified, actively managed IDBI Dynamic Bond Fund.
“The scheme would take active calls on duration and interest rate and create and modify the portfolio in line with the changing macroeconomic and interest rate environments. This flexibility in portfolio composition will generate optimum, risk-adjusted returns making this scheme relevant under all market conditions,” said Debasish Mallick, MD & CEO, IDBI Mutual Fund.
The fund will invest in government securities, T-Bills, PSU bonds and corporate bonds across various maturities. The fund is suitable for investors who have an investment horizon of more than one year but cannot identify trends in interest rate movements. The fund is mainly targeted at retail investors.
