Among Iother things being equal, these investment options can differ from each other on their returns, maturity period and the risk tak- ing capacity of the investors.

As far as the time aspect of the investment is concerned, there are financial instruments, which are short-term in nature and these include savings bank accounts, money market or liq- uid funds, and fixed deposits with banks. On the other hand, there are some financial instruments which offer a long-term horizon SONU TRIVEDI for investment.
