Bandhan Retirement Fund - Direct Plan
An open-ended retirement solution oriented scheme having a lock-in of 5 years or till retirement age (whichever is earlier)
What is a Retirement Fund?
Retirement funds are investment options that allow an investor to save a portion of their income for retirement and offer them a potentially regular source of income once they retire. A retiree receives annuity payments as long as they are alive and the remaining corpus is transferred to the nominee.
The fundamental purpose of a retirement fund is to provide the investor with a steady source of income after their retirement. Investors can withdraw a minimum of ₹200 on a monthly basis via SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan). However, Bandhan Retirement Fund has a lock-in period of 5 years or till the investor reaches their retirement age, whichever comes first. Due to the lock-in period, Bandhan Retirement Fund is not a liquid investment.
While there are several retirement investment options available, mutual fund retirement plans allow investors to save and receive money periodically and potentially enable capital appreciation in the long-term. Retirement funds may potentially serve the dual purpose of investment and retirement planning.
Bandhan Retirement Fund invests in equity and equity-related securities, debt and money market instruments. Consequently, this retirement fund is classified as a risky fund. Investors can choose between SIP and lumpsum mode of investment to potentially meet their financial goals.
