Entry Load
Entry load is a fee charged by some mutual funds at the time of investment. It is a percentage of the amount invested and is deducted before units are allotted to the investor. While most mutual funds no longer charge an entry load due to regulatory changes, it is still important to check for any applicable charges before investing. Being aware of such costs helps investors make informed decisions and manage their investment more efficiently. Entry load, if present, reduces the initial investment amount and can impact overall returns, making it a key factor to consider during fund selection.
