The JM Short Duration Fund aims to generate stable returns with a low risk strategy while maintaining liquidity through a portfolio comprising of debt and money market instruments. This fund follows a conservative investment approach designed to provide steady income for investors seeking stability.
The fund focuses on:
- Building a portfolio of high-quality debt securities
- Maintaining appropriate duration management (typically 1-3 years)
- Balancing safety, liquidity, and yield optimization
- Investing in government securities, corporate bonds, and money market instruments
Short Duration debt funds invest mainly in bonds maturing in a period of one to three years. They are suitable for investment horizons of one to three years, or for the fixed-income allocation in your longer-term portfolio. You can expect to earn higher returns than what a bank fixed deposit can fetch. The risk of incurring a loss in these funds is low, but they do not guarantee returns or safety of capital like a bank deposit.

Limited, LIC Nomura Mutual Fund AMC, Daiwa Asset Management (India) Pvt. Ltd., SBI Funds Management Pvt Ltd., IL&FS Investsmart Ltd. and Darashaw & Co. Pvt. Ltd.
