Why invest?
Why invest?The choice of investing in a mutual fund is easy if you have the necessary knowledge about it. Here are some of the attributes of investment funds which will help you in making your decision regarding the investment of your savings:
- Growth generated buy investment funds is generally higher than that from bank deposits
- Money invested in a fund can be redeemed at any time, partially or totally, without the loss of gain cumulated until that moment
- The minimum sums which can be invested in a fund are much smaller than those necessary for other types of investments (deposits, equity, etc)
- Investment in a fund is a managed investment. Through a fund you get indirect access to the evolution of shares listed in the stock exchange, for example, without having to analyse for yourself the market and identify the best shares to buy.
- Through a fund you get indirect access to a series of financial instruments which you couldn’t normally use (treasury bills for companies, negotiated interest rates with the banks) or that you could use only in certain periods and with much higher efforts (issue of bonds)
- Investment in a fund helps you understand capital market mechanisms, and allows you to go further and buy stock, for example
- You have access to a wide range of funds, with different characteristics, performance, and risks.
