Gilt funds

 

These funds invest in all types of government debt, including bonds issued by the central bank on behalf of the Centre as well as those issued by the state governments. Since gilt funds invest in papers backed by the governments, they carry zero default risk. However, that does not mean they are safe from all aspects: Interest rate risks could be a concern. In fact, long-term gilt funds are the riskiest among debt funds, as they are most sensitive to interest rate changes.

Who Should Invest

 

Only those who are comfortable with a high degree of risk and looking for capital appreciation instead of protection should invest in a gilt fund.

Underlying bond prices will fluctuate wildly and will reflect in the fund's NAV.

Time Horizon

 

Investors should ideally put money in a long-term gilt fund during a declining interest rate scenario with a time horizon of at least 18-24 months. You should invest in a short-term gilt fund for about one year.
