FAQ #3 : What are the risks involved in Bharat bond ETF?
Investing in any fixed-income securities has four major risks- Price risk, Credit Risk, Reinvestment Risk and Liquidity Risk. We have mitigated these risks in the following manner:
Price Risk: The investment has target maturity. This means the initial yield is locked if the investment is continued till maturity. However, if you withdraw/redeem before maturity, Price risk will remain.
Credit Risk: Each bond issuer is a Government of India's Public Sector Enterprise with a credit rating of AAA. Default risk, therefore, is minimal.
Reinvestment Risk: Coupons/interest received by the fund shall be reinvested in the similar underlying assets as that of the Index/portfolio.
Liquidity Risk: We have appointed a market maker to provide liquidity on the exchanges. Hence, an investor can buy/sell their units on exchange anytime they wish.
