What is the meaning of net asset value? The NAV represents the book value per share of a specific fund. It is reflective of the closing price or end-of-day trading value. Mutual funds and other fund types use money from numerous investors to invest in securities, creating a large basket of financial instruments. Each investor gets a specified number of shares in proportion to their invested amount. The pricing of each share is based on the NAV. The NAV is calculated by subtracting liabilities from the total value of all the cash and securities in a fund's portfolio and then dividing this value by the number of shares outstanding.

Why is it important? While there are several metrics to evaluate the performance of a fund, such as the rate of return, the NAV is an important calculation, as it communicates the worth of a single share from an entire fund's overall value. However, it is also important to note that while the NAV typically reflects the fair market value, the actual market value of a fund may slightly differ from the NAV, as the NAV is mostly representative of the fund's book value while the market value is reflective of a buying or selling opportunity.

Top factors to consider when reviewing fund house performance Performance history is one of the most basic factors to consider when reviewing a fund house, as this provides insight into both the track record of the fund house and the performance of its schemes. Fund management follows, and while funds may be actively or passively managed, success often depends mainly on the capabilities of individual fund managers.

Mutual funds, like all financial securities, are open to market risk. This is due to the inability to predict future performance. Assets may increase or decrease in value as the market cannot be controlled. Mutual funds are subjected to several areas of risk across the market. Common types of market risk include equity risk, which, as a result of changing market prices, may reduce the value of individual investments when sold. Interest rate risk, credit risk, sociopolitical risk, and country risk all stand to cause a devaluation of mutual funds in the Indian market. Inflation risk may also pose a threat, reducing the value of the Indian rupee and leading to reduced value in long-term investments. However, current forecasts see inflation levels dropping in the coming years.

As of July 18, 2025, the major economy with the highest yield on 10-year government bonds was Turkey, with a yield of ** percent.

Of the major developed economies, United Kingdom had one the highest yield on 10-year government bonds at this time with **** percent, while Switzerland had the lowest at **** percent. How does inflation influence the yields of government bonds? Inflation reduces purchasing power over time. Due to this, investors seek higher returns to offset the anticipated decrease in purchasing power resulting from rapid price rises. In countries with high inflation, government bond yields often incorporate investor expectations and risk premiums, resulting in comparatively higher rates offered by these bonds. Why are government bond rates significant? Government bond rates are an important indicator of financial markets, serving as a benchmark for borrowing costs, interest rates, and investor sentiment. They affect the cost of government borrowing, influence the price of various financial instruments, and serve as a reflection of expectations regarding inflation and economic growth. For instance, in financial analysis and investing, people often use the 10-year U.S. government bond rates as a proxy for the longer-term risk-free rate.
