Jul. 1--Investors are gaining a better understanding of how mutual funds operate, paving the way for business growth, according to Ayudhya JF Asset Management.

During the first half of this year, 7.7 billion baht was invested in the industry's fixed-income funds, said the company's managing director, Reungvit Nandha-biwat.

In general, yields from fixed-income funds are higher than bank deposit interest of 1.75-2 percent.
