How to Get Started on Investment Planning
We make it easy for you to create your own investment plan to meet your financial goals. Simply follow these four easy steps and be on your way to investment success:
1. Know yourself
- What is your investment objective - saving for school fees, building a retirement fund, increasing your capital or preserving the wealth you already have?
- How much time do you have to reach your investment objective?
- Are you new to or very experienced in mutual fund or stock investments?
2. Choose funds to suit your needs
Once you've established your objectives, time frame and level of experience, select a portfolio of funds that best suit your investment needs, and be reminded that:
- Typically, diversification1 can help mitigate risk because your money is spread across many different markets.
- You can mix money, bond and equity funds to suit your time frame and risk profile.
- You should know your risk appetite and consider the risk rating of the funds when building your portfolio.
