An Open-ended Mutual Fund is a type of fund that becomes available after the New Fund Offer (NFO) ends. It allows individuals to enter and exit the fund at any time after its launch. This flexibility makes it a popular choice for investors as it offers liquidity and convenience. Unlike a Closed-ended Mutual Fund, which has a fixed maturity period, an open-ended fund does not have a set timeline. This means investors have the freedom to invest and redeem their units as per their financial goals and needs.
