Looking at the case of retired people, they would look for an investment which would yield them regular income. Ideal investments would, therefore, in my opinion be investments that:
Groww has designed few investments specifically for people desiring regular income with less risk attached.
One such scheme with high return attached to it and comparatively lesser risk is Moderately Low Risk Portfolio For Business. It has a trailing annualized rate of return of 13.27%. It is mainly a debt induced portfolio which yields money via interests to the investors. A small part of it is also invested in large capital companies which have less risk attached to it.
One other ideal investment fund is the Better Than FD Returns Low Risk. It is created with all debt investments and therefore involves the least risk. It has had an annualized return rate of 7.29%. One of the key features of this fund is less quantum of of exit load. The investor can withdraw his funds at any point of time without paying any significant extra charges. This enables the investor to maximize his returns.
You may also evaluate Short-Term Low Risk Portfolio if you are looking to park funds for short term. It has historically generated annualized return of 10.77% and exposes the investor to low risk. The total corpus is used in majorly to invest in debt securities, though a smaller portion is also invested in equity.
