Portfolio
Arbitrage funds invest in stocks, but hedge this whole exposure through derivatives. As a result, these funds deliver debt-like returns and are low risk. Where funds do not find arbitrage opportunities, they can invest in debt securities but maintain an equity orientation. The advantage these funds is that they are taxed like equity funds, and are therefore more efficient than debt funds.
These funds suit investors in the high tax brackets who want debt-like returns with better tax efficiency. These funds need to be held for about 1 year.
