What are the risks?
AZ Savings can be exposed to various types of risk like interest rate risk, credit risk for corporate bonds as well as liquidity risk. The fund manager typically manages these types of risks by diversifying the investments of the fund across different asset classes and maturity ladders that match the liquidity and nature of money inside the fund. The fund manager also sets a max exposure to a single issuer and related parties.
