𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐈𝐏 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 One of the best methods for retirement savings has been shown to be a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) using equity mutual funds. A fixed sum can be invested into a mutual fund using SIP at regular periods, usually once a month.

Investors can take advantage of the flexibility and compounding power of SIP investing, which improves returns and offers higher risk-adjusted performance. Building wealth becomes more important than just conserving it, especially in light of inflation, falling interest rates in traditional investment options, and the desire for higher post-tax real returns. In this regard, mutual fund SIPs and stocks as an asset class seem to be a perfect fit for the demands of the modern world. Long-term, they have the potential to yield significant rewards. #LICMF #SIP #AMC #Retirement #financialplanning

Target date funds are in high demand these days. According to a recent Sway Research study, total TDF assets reached $3.5 trillion in 2023 — a record level. Moreover, mutual fund target dates began 2024 slightly ahead of collective investment trusts, holding $1.76 trillion in assets compared to $1.71 trillion in CITs, TDF assets in CITs are expected to overtake assets in mutual funds this year as fiduciaries continue to look for ways to reduce fees and access innovative solutions. TDFs offer participants many advantages: a simplified investment decision-making process, diversification by professional fund managers, automatic rebalancing, a glide path strategy that adjusts risk over time, and much more. Given the popularity of these funds, plan sponsors should help ensure participants understand how their TDF works to maximize their potential benefits — and avoid common missteps that can undermine their retirement strategy.
