Liquid Mutual Funds are a category of debt mutual funds that invest in short-term money market instruments with a maturity of up to 91 days. These funds are designed to provide high liquidity and stability, making them ideal for parking surplus funds for a very short duration. Liquid Funds typically invest in instruments such as Treasury Bills (T-Bills), Commercial Papers (CPs), Certificates of Deposit (CDs), and short-term government securities.. Liquid Mutual Funds are ideal for investors seeking a safe, liquid, and low-risk investment option for short-term cash management. These funds invest in high-quality, short-term money market instruments with a maturity of up to 91 days, offering quick redemption (within 1 business day) and stable returns. While they provide better returns than savings accounts, they may underperform compared to other debt funds with longer maturities. Investors should consider their liquidity needs, risk tolerance, and investment horizon before investing in Liquid Funds.
