Index funds or ETFs — which one should investors choose? On this episode of Money Today, we decode the key differences between these two popular passive investment options with Mohit Gang, Co-founder & CEO, MoneyFront. From how index funds and ETFs work to their costs, taxation, liquidity and the way they are bought and sold, we break down what investors need to know before choosing between the two. We also discuss SIPs versus lump-sum investing, ETF premiums and discounts, tracking error, and why liquidity can be an important factor when investing through ETFs. The episode also looks at who should consider index funds, when ETFs can make sense, and how investors can build passive investments into their long-term portfolio strategy.
