Goal Based SIP – A Simpler Way to achieve financial goals!
Every individual have some life
goals, some of them are short term goals and some of them are long term goals.
Everyone is working day and night to turn their dreams into a reality. It is
really very easy to see a dream of buying a new car, sending children to some
good country for higher education or to plan a daughter’s grand wedding, but
sometimes when the situations are not favorable our savings or plans just
doesn’t work. So the solution to such a situation is A Goal Based SIP. When the investments are made with a single mind
focusing on maximizing returns, then this often leads to investment mistakes
like trying to time the market. Fear and greed become the driving forces so
that when markets turn volatile, we tend to pull out our money or increase our
investments when the markets are already over-heated. Goal Based investing adds
direction to our investments, as we know the purpose behind each investment. In Goal based investment, performance is measured by the
success of investments in meeting an individual's personal and lifestyle goals.
For Example: For example if you are planning for your children higher education
then you need to amass a corpus of Rs. 1 crore, but think is it really Possible
to accumulate such a huge amount with your regular investment strategy? It
might be possible that you will end up spending your saving for some other
purpose in such a situation. But if you will start an SIP at an early stage of
Rs. 15000 for 18 years, then you might be able to accumulate a corpus of Rs.
1,43,45,741 for your child’s education in your choice of college.
Thus, Goal-based financial
planning helps you invest in a systematic and disciplined manner to achieve
your goals. It helps you remain focused and unaffected by the short term
volatility in the markets.
