Written up from the same chapter
- Assets under ManagementThe total value of the money a scheme or a fund house manages — the current NAV multiplied by units outstanding — and the base on which the expense ratio is charged.
- Exchange Traded FundA mutual fund scheme whose units are listed and traded on a stock exchange like a share, so you transact at live prices through the day instead of at one end-of-day NAV.
- Face valueThe denomination a company's capital is divided into and carried in its books — fixed, printed on the certificate, and the base on which dividend percentages and stock splits are computed.
- Fixed Maturity PlanA close-ended debt scheme whose portfolio maturity is aligned to the scheme's own maturity date, so the investor who stays to the end has a reasonably visible outcome — though never a guaranteed one.
- Fund of fundsAn AIF that invests in the units of other AIFs rather than directly in investee companies — buying diversification across managers and strategies, and paying two layers of fees for it.
- IDCWThe renamed dividend option of a mutual fund scheme — a payout that is part income and part return of your own capital, which is why the NAV falls by exactly the amount distributed.
