Bonds (15)

How do I invest in bonds?

The best way for you to invest in bonds is through bond funds or fixed income funds.

The funds are managed by professional managers and the income earned from the investments is then distributed to unit holders in proportion to their ownership.

The general bond funds usually invest in the medium- to long-term bonds while the money market funds and short-term bond funds invest in short-term bonds.

A short-term bond has a maturity period of less than a year and is technically referred to as a money market instrument.
