A market-linked pooled investment
The primary objective of the Zerodha Life Cycle Fund 2036 is to provide a goal-based investment solution that seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing across various asset classes i.e., Equity, Debt, InvITs, ETCDs, Gold and Silver ETFs. The fund follows a pre-determined maturity and a dynamic glide path strategy across the product lifespan initially maintaining an aggressive stance and automatically transitioning toward a conservative, debt-heavy allocation to protect capital as the target date approaches. There is no assurance that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved.
Investors whose goal, horizon and risk capacity match the official scheme objective.
The scheme can lose value; study the portfolio, costs, liquidity and concentration before investing.
