What are Arbitrage Funds?
Arbitrage Funds exploit price differences between cash and derivatives markets to generate returns. They buy securities in one market and simultaneously sell in another at a higher price, locking in risk-free profits. These funds are ideal for conservative investors seeking low-risk, stable returns with minimal exposure to market volatility.
