But not all index funds are created equal. In fact, there are 11 different types of index funds that serve different objectives, each with their own benefits and drawbacks. In this video, I'll be discussing each of those 11 index fund types that are available for investment to investors. We shall be looking at passively managed funds ranging from broad market index funds (like the Nifty 500), market capitalization based index funds (like the Nifty 50, Nifty Next 50, Nifty Midcap 150 etc.), equal weight index funds, hybrid index funds (within equities and also a combination of assets), sectoral index funds (like Bank Nifty, Nifty IT index etc.), thematic index funds (like healthcare, energy & consumption based), factor based index funds (like momentum, low volatility etc.), strategy index funds (like leverage, futures, beta etc.), international index funds (like the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500 index fund), bond index funds (target maturity funds) and socially responsible index funds (ESG index funds) Each of these index funds serves a different objective and can help investors achieve different investment goals. And by understanding the different types of index funds available, you can make a more informed decision about which fund is right for you. ❤️ I hope you LIKE this video and if you do, then please SHARE it with your friends and well-wishers so that they too can receive the benefits of this knowledge.
