For most Indians, traditional savings seem a natural choice, but debt funds offer variety and convenience.
Debt funds offer a well-diversified portfolio as compared to traditional debt instruments with absolute transparency in terms of portfolio disclosure. There are various categories of debt funds to choose from, that offer different average maturities of the underlying instruments with varying degrees of credit risks.
