An article in Times of India advises investors to manage mutual fund risk by focusing on asset allocation based on financial goals and risk tolerance, rather than recent fund performance. The author, CEO of Paisabazaar, explains that different asset classes behave differently under market conditions, and proper allocation balances growth with stability. Diversification across and within asset classes is also crucial. Within equity, spreading investments across large, mid, and small cap funds can reduce concentration risk. International exposure may hedge currency depreciation. The article suggests these strategies help align portfolios with goals while mitigating volatility.
