How you invest can make a difference…

An investment in Franklin India Opportunities Fund at its inception.....

…may have just about broken even in a period of 5 years…

Yet a SIP of Rs.1,000 per month, during the same period…

Past performance may or may not be sustained in future and the same is for illustrative purpose only

Rs. 15,943

Rs. 68,820 Total investment madeRs.60,000

Annualized Return on investment26.37% p.a.

Systematic InvestingThe Nuts and Bolts…

What are Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs)?

The term “systematic investing” applies to the process of investing regularly i.e. at fixed intervals – say – monthly or quarterly

Why should one do a SIP?

To achieve your financial goals, the simplest form of planning is to invest regularlyMost of us calculate our earnings, expenses and savings monthlyThe easiest way to plan our investments, therefore, is on a monthly basis

What are the Benefits of SIPs?

The Power of CompoundingRupee Cost Averaging – ideal way to deal with market volatility ConvenienceAffordability

A Very Famous Folk Tale…

Once a poor farmer challenged the King for a game of chess and won

The King asked the Farmer to choose his reward and all that Farmer asked for was 1 grain of wheat for the first square, 2 grains for second, 4 grains for third, 8 for the fourth and so on and so forth for all the 64 squares…

The King was very happy and readily granted the wish…

The real snag came when he had to settle the claim…

Page 10: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

A Very Famous Folk Tale…

Would you like to guess the number????

Page 11: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

Watch Out…

The King required 18,446,774,073,709,600,000 grains of wheat for all the 64 squares!!!!!!!

If there are approximately 25,000 grains in 1 Kg. of wheat, the King required 7,37,870 million tonnes of wheat to settle this claim

India’s total Food grain Production last year (2007-08) was 230 million tonnes* – the required quantity is over 3,200 times of this amount

If King wanted to settle this for cash assuming super whole sale rate of Rs.3.50 per Kg., he would require Rs. 25,82,54,417 Crore to settle this claim!!!

This is over 60 times of the country’s Gross Domestic Product for 2007-08 (Rs. 43,03,654 Crore)*

* Source – RBI Annual Report 2007-08

Page 12: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

What exactly happened here?

Farmer used power of compounding to his advantage

Things were fine till the first few squares, it was only by the 10th square or so that it went out of hand…

We could call Compounding the “Eighth Wonder of the World”

But it works only if used over the long term...

Welcome to the world of “SYSTEMATIC INVESTING” and use “POWER OF COMPOUNDING” to meet your Long Term Financial Goals

Page 13: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

Systematic Investment PlansThe Power of Compounding

The Compound Interest formula as we know…

A = P * (1 + R) ^ n

Where, A = Amount at maturity,P = Principal amount invested,R = Rate of return earned,n = Time period of investment

OR

FV = PV * (1 + R) ^ n

Where, FV = Future Value,PV = Present Value

Page 14: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

FV = PV (1 + r)n

Systematic Investment PlansRupee Cost Averaging

Rupee Cost Averaging - Investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, irrespective of market conditions

It enables investors to buy less when prices are high and buy more when prices are low

Systematic Investment Plans

Scenarios In declining markets, SIP investors reduce the effects of market risk by acquiring more Units at increasingly lower Unit prices.

In fluctuating markets, the cost of Units purchased by SIP investors will always be lower than the average market price of Units over the same period.

In rising markets, lump sum investors benefit more than SIP investors if their money was invested in one lump sum at the lowest price.

Convenience Direct debit facility / ECS

Post-dated cheques

Flexibility - You can choose to invest every month either on 1st, 7th, 20th or 25th..

Group SIP / Corporate Salary Deduction

Page 17: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

Systematic Transfer Plans

Requirements…

Do not want to issue cheques everytime I want to invest in an equity fund

Do not want to worry about maintaining balances in the bank account

Am a fixed income investor looking to gradually increase my equity exposure to boost potential returns

Have received a lumpsum amount and want to invest it gradually in equities

Systematic Transfer Plan is the solution for you, if any one of the above matches your requirements

Page 18: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

Systematic Transfer Plans

Facility wherein you can transfer an amount regularly from an income scheme / liquid scheme to an equity or hybrid scheme

Provides the benefits of Rupee cost averaging, where your investments are not tied to any particular level of the market

Makes the power of compounding work for you

All the benefits of systematic investing

Page 19: SYSTEMATIC INVESTING A Perspective

Then why aren't SIPs popular ? – Some common myths

I have put my money in the bank. Why should I worry? Traditional savings avenues are not the answer for all financial goals considering the impact of inflation

I am young right now I should just spend. I have plenty of timeDelaying your investment only increases your burden and makes the realization of your goals harder…

I don’t have enough money to investYou can start a SIP with as low as Rs.500. As they say, small drops of water make the ocean !!

I don’t have the time or expertise to follow market movements and makeinvestments at the right time

Mutual funds and SIPs are an ideal way to invest without worrying about market movements

Common thoughts/Issues

Don’t want to invest now – I have enough time to decide

I’m probably better off in cash and will catch the lows/ the global events have been very alarming – should one invest now ?

“I’ll wait for the market to get better”

“Why should I continue to invest in stocks when my recent returns are negative ?

Past Performance is no Guarantee of Future…

Yes, one should not chase past performance

But as George Santanya said "Those who forget the lessons of history are condemned to repeat them.“

Do not let market declines and recent performance influence your decisions

o India remains a vibrant economy and is going to be one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

Stock markets get swayed by ‘sentiment’, but fundamentals will prevail over the long run
