How to Monitor and Track Your SIP Investments Effectively

investment-strategy-7-tips-to-get-better-results-in-mutual-fund-investment

 

A prudent financial strategy means investing your money well. Systematic Investment Plans or SIP investments are a preferred choice as they make buying mutual funds quite easy. There is no need to worry about where or how to invest, expert asset managers do that for you. Your money is diversified and the risk altogether negated. So what’s the deal?

It is your hard earned money: investing and forgetting about it isn’t ideal. Of course, with the market constantly evolving, selecting the right mutual fund to maximise returns is crucial. Investing in suitable SIPs is only one part of the equation. It is equally important to periodically monitor the performance of these funds. Read on to find out why.

Why Monitor SIP Performance?

Just like you would check your progress on a road trip, it is crucial to keep an eye on your mutual fund investments. When you invest in mutual funds for long-term financial goals, various factors like economic events, market changes or unforeseen events can impact the performance of your investments. Regular monitoring ensures that your investments stay on track with your financial objectives. Whether you do it yourself, seek advice from a financial expert or use a mutual fund portfolio tracker, staying informed is the key.

Track Your Mutual Fund Investments

Consolidated Account Statement (CAS): A CAS consolidates all financial transactions in your mutual fund portfolio for a specific month, across different fund houses and folios under the same PAN. It is sent to your registered e-mail address, but you can also access it online. This statement simplifies monitoring your investments, especially if you have multiple holdings.

AMC's Mobile App/Web Portal: Many Asset Management Companies (AMCs) offer Mobile apps and Web portals that allow you to track your investments. Log in to the respective AMC's platform to access your Account statement and monitor your fund's performance. This method is convenient, especially if you have invested in funds from a single AMC.

MF Factsheet: Begin by reviewing the MF (Mutual Funds) factsheet. The single page summary provides key information about the scheme, including its Name, Objective, Expense ratio, Fund Manager's expertise, Assets Under Management (AUM), Net Asset Value (NAV), Portfolio Turnover and more. It also compares the fund's returns with its benchmark.

Online Portfolio Trackers: If you have invested in SIPs from various AMCs, online portfolio trackers can simplify the tracking process. These trackers consolidate your holdings, provide daily NAV updates and offer insights into your portfolio's performance. They may even suggest alternative funds if any of your holdings underperform. There are numerous apps in the market for this.

SEBI-Registered Investment Advisor: For more personal guidance and investment monitoring, consider consulting a SEBI-Registered Investment Advisor. These experts can help you select suitable schemes based on your financial goals and risk tolerance. Additionally, they can assess your investments and offer guidance that could help maximise your returns.
