ET Wealth-Crisil Study Shows Long-Term SIPs Reduce Loss Risk Amid Crises

The ET Wealth-Crisil SIP Study 2026 highlights that long-term Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) investors, especially those investing for 10 years or more, have a near-zero chance of losing money despite market volatility. Real-life cases illustrate contrasting investor behaviors during crises: some, like Kolkata-based Arup Kumar Samanta, continued SIPs despite personal hardships, while others paused investments amid market downturns. The study emphasizes patience and consistent investing as key to mitigating losses and achieving financial goals.
