Hybrid mutual fund schemes' inflow moderates in FY25 amid market turbulence

Hybrid mutual fund schemes attracted Rs 1.19 lakh crore in 2024-25, 18 per cent lower than the preceding fiscal, owing to market turbulence in the second half of FY25 triggered by corporate earnings slowdown and geo-political tensions. Despite the moderation in inflow, the category has seen a robust increase in both the number of investors and assets under management (AUM) during FY25 compared to those in the preceding fiscal, data with the Association of Mutual Funds in India (Amfi) showed. A key factor contributing to this resilience is the drawdown protection provided by the debt component of hybrid schemes. "The drawdown protection offered by the debt component of hybrid schemes is a key reason, as it allows investors to stay invested without the stress that comes with pure equity volatility. The NAVs (net asset valued) of hybrid funds typically experience lower drawdowns compared to equity funds, making them a preferred choice for investors seeking a more stable journey," Trive
