JioBlackRock to Launch Balanced Advantage Fund NFO September 11
JioBlackRock is launching a new investment fund on September 11.
The fund can invest in both company shares and safer debt investments.
It can change the mix of these investments over time.
Between 65% and 90% of the fund will normally be in shares or related investments.
Between 10% and 35% will be in debt and money-market securities.
BlackRock’s Aladdin technology will help decide how the money is allocated.
People can invest ₹500 at once or start a monthly ₹500 SIP.
The fund is marked as very high risk, so its value could change significantly.
