This book is an attempt to bridge the gap in understanding of Mutual Funds and its extension to the debt markets. At this time when Indian economy is privatizing, fixed income instruments are likely to play a key role in making it serve the economic purpose of distributing wealth to be created by the private sector. The author has made a balanced approach of introducing mutual funds and their fixed income underlying besides arming the readers on how to examine the underlying to know the health of the overlying. A must read for retail and corporate investors and their advisors to help them understand risks and to make right decisions.
