About Investment Plans
|
Investment Plans are not mutual funds but rather percentage allocations between existing mutual funds, aiming to provide a more customized investment approach to the investors. Investment Plans allow the investors to invest periodically in a portfolio generating returns to meet their particular personal goals and preferences.
Investment Plans make investment easy as the investors have to make one payment only for allocation of investment in two funds and receive one payment at the time of redemption. As the Investment Plans are reallocated at least quarterly, it keeps the investments focused towards the investor’s selected investment objective without any additional effort from their end.
AAML has launched Investment Plans using Atlas Income Fund (AIF) and Atlas Stock Market Fund (ASMF) as the underlying funds.
