The time horizon over which you will build up and hold your investment, a period likely to be determined by your age, play a significant part in how you allocate your portfolio. If you are in your 20s and 30s investing for retirement or put your child through higher education, you should preferably invest in Equity Fund as your holding period will be 20 years or more. If you are nearing retirement, you should invest substantially in Bond Fund which gives a predictable return.
