How to Pick Best Infrastructure Funds to Invest

Some of the important parameters to choose a right infrastructure fund are:

1. Fund Performance

Go for a fund that has performed consistently in the past five years. Also, a fund that consistently beats its benchmark over 4-5 years is a preferred choice.

2. Fund Size

While picking a fund, one should always look at the size of the fund. While there is no perfect definition and relation between the size of the fund, it is said that both too small and too large, can hinder a fund’s performance. Thus, while choosing a fund, it is advisable to go for the one whose AUM (Asset Under Management) is approximately the same as the category.

3. Fund House & Fund Manager

Also look at the reputation of the fund house and the fund manager who manages the fund. A fund should belong to a quality and reputed firm. Moreover, a fund's performance is majorly in hands of the manager. Thus, one should check the past performances of the fund that is managed by the fund manager also with his experience.
