Question: Is investing multiple mutual funds under the same fund house a wise decision?
A lot of times we face such questions. Others too might think of investing in multiple schemes of the same fund house.
One must understand that there cannot be a standard answer to this particular question, and the reasons are mentioned as below.
1. Mutual funds are run by AMC which are the asset management companies. When you decide to invest in any scheme, you there itself are reducing the risk by putting money in multiple companies instead of one single stock, and that too under the supervision of a well known and reputed fund manager. That itself is a lot of diversification.
2. If you wish to invest in any other scheme, you may choose a scheme from the same fund house. This has many benefits as well. All your schemes would be mapped to your single folio. It would become easier for you to track as well.
It is not that the same fund manager would would be managing all the schemes of that fund house. Though a fund manager may manage multiple schemes. There are enough checks and balances to ensure that your money is safe.
3. Having doubts on investing in multiple schemes from a single fund house is like saying not buying all the groceries from the same supermarket store, just to diversify the risk of getting bad quality of groceries.
Hope it helps.
