+ Notes on the Funds Available : We will manage the investment in each fund so that the proportion of each Asset Class is ALWAYS within the ranges given. ++ Money Market Instruments includes Liquid Mutual Funds, commercial papers, commercial bills, treasury bills, Government securities having an unexpired maturity up to one year, call or notice money, certificate of deposit, usance bills, and any other like instruments as specified by the Reserve Bank of India from time to time.+++ Bank Deposits means deposits issued by any Primary Dealer or Non-Banking and Banking Financial Company approved by the Reserve Bank of India or by any other Public Financial Institutions or by Housing Finance Companies approved by the National Housing Bank. - Your investment choices must follow IRDA regulations.
This means that some investment choices will not be permitted; in particular we do not allow more than 10% of any unit allocation to be in the Liquid Fund II. - The past performance of any of the funds is not necessarily an indication of future performance. Unit prices can go up and down. No fund offers an assured return. The names of the funds we offer under this plan do not, in anyway, indicates the quality of the plan, its future prospects or returns. - None of the funds participate in the profits of HDFC Standard Life Insurance Company Limited. - Investment professionals regard money market instruments as unsuitable investments for the long term and are generally used for the short term. This is because money market instruments have relatively stable returns and offer high degree of capital safety. However, they tend to offer lower returns over the long term compared to other investments.
