A balanced fund is a scheme which intends to invests in a combination of equity and fixed income securities with an aim to provide capital appreciation and income while avoiding too much risk.

Such schemes allocate their corpus in both, equities and fixed income securities in the proportion indicated in their Scheme Information Document. These are appropriate for investors looking for moderate growth. These funds are also affected because of fluctuations in share prices in the stock markets. However, NAVs of such funds are likely to be less volatile compared to pure equity funds.

Adjustable to Market Changes
Splitting your investment between debt and equity plays another vital role - when the equity portion does especially well (like in a rising market) and becomes larger, the extra profits can be switched by the fund manager to debt and vice versa. This is done with the intent of minimizing your chances of being overexposed to risk or losing out on growth opportunities.

In addition, with an aim to take advantage of the growth opportunities in the market; and at times to safeguard your investments, the debt and equity portion can be varied between 25 - 50% and 50 - 75% respectively.
