What is Sectoral-Banking Mutual Fund
Banking sector funds are a type of equity mutuals fund that invest exclusively in banking and financial services companies. These funds are highly sensitive to interest rate changes, economic cycles, and regulatory policies affecting the banking industry. Since they focus on a single sector, they carry higher risk compared to diversified equity funds.
Advantages of Sectoral-Banking Funds

- Not more than 10% of your portfolio should be allocated to this fund category
- If you invest, be prepared to stay invested for at least 7+ year

How long should I stay invested in Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds?
Since Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds are equity funds i.e. they invest in stocks of companies, you need to stay invested for at least 5 years.
Where do Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds invest?
Sectoral Funds have to invest at least 80% of their assets in stocks of companies operating in a particular sector. For instance, a Banking Sectoral Fund will invest only in stocks of banks, NBFCs, and other financial institutions. Due to this narrow sector focus, these funds lack diversification and therefore carry high risk.
Are Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds high risk?
Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds invest in equities, so in a short term, they can be volatile. However, over a long-term, the risk comes down substantially.
What kind of returns can I earn from Sectoral-Banking ?
Sectoral-Banking Funds have on an average delivered 21.18% p.a. returns in the last 5 years. Their 3 and 10 year annualized returns are 17.4% and 13.5% p.a.
Should I invest in Sectoral-Banking Mutual Funds?
Sectoral Funds are some of the riskiest Mutual Funds. Since these funds invest only in one sector, there is no sector diversification, and that is the main reason for their high risk. If the sector goes down, all the stocks in the portfolio will go down with nothing to cushion this fall. These funds are suitable only for experienced investors, and even then, not more than 10% of the portfolio should be in these funds.
