Looking for peace of mind with your investments? Check out One Click's Stable

Your grandfather invested in fixed deposits, and your father swore by them. FDs were the default investment tool for all their savings, with a comfortable interest rate and no risks. It was a different time and age. Then came the share market wave with the promise of quick and high returns.

The bullish times do indeed bring in stupendous returns but the risk of volatility always hangs over your shoulders like a menacing sword. How can you strike a balance between the lure of the temptingly high returns and the stability of the trusted fixed deposit? Luckily, ICICIdirect's new investment tool, One Click, has the answer.

An easy to use platform, One Click allows investors to choose from an array of baskets of Mutual Fund schemes, curated after in-depth analysis on both qualitative and quantitative parameters.  Its portfolio - Stable - gives you the optimum balance between debt and equity instruments, while allowing for a small amount of risk to mop up those high returns.

What exactly is Stable?

It is one of the popular portfolios from the One Click family that comes with ‘built - in’ stability. Its higher allocation towards Debt schemes with a limited participation in equity makes it ideal for those who seek FD plus returns, with marginally higher risk.

Curated after diligent research and designed specifically to address your investment goals, Stable makes sure you get consistent returns on your investment in debt instruments, while keeping an eye on the big bucks that accrue to you through investment in equity as well.

Is Stable for me?

If you are the kind of investor who wants to move beyond the traditional FD investment route and has been looking for a fine balance of debt and equity, Stable is for you. As the name suggests, the specially crafted portfolio makes judicious investment choices in large caps and corporate bonds to give you high returns coupled with peace of mind!

How does it work?

With a minimum lump sum investment of Rs 25,000 or an SIP of Rs 10,000, you are good to start with Stable. The portfolio assigns 30 per cent to large cap and 70 per cent strategic allocation to corporate bond fund.

This portfolio can fetch you optimum returns if you stay invested for a period of 3 to 5 years.

One Click is all it takes

One Click's easy to use interface allows you to choose your portfolio in accordance with your investment goals, while being assured that certified experts are monitoring the health of your portfolio and guiding you every step of the way.
