It is published by the fund house. Gives a quick look at what a mutual fund scheme is all about. It usually takes one or two pages. Inside the factsheet you can find the schemes goal, the kinds of investments it makes how well it has done how much it costs and how risky it is. This is the way to see what a mutual fund actually owns and what fees it charges before you put any money in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you get used to reading the factsheet it only takes a minutes.. It helps avoid a common mistake-picking a scheme just because of its returns from last year. That one strong year might not mean much. Factsheets are usually posted on the fund house&#8217;s website and on the AMFI website within ten days after the end of each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_the_factsheet_includes\"><\/span><strong>What the factsheet includes:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Section<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What it shows<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What to check<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Objective and category<\/td><td>What the scheme wants to do.
