​Invest confidently

If you’re wondering if mutual funds meet your financial requirements, consider the many benefits they have to offer you as an investor. Basically, a mutual fund is a collection of individual securities, such as stocks and bonds. Picture a company that brings a group of people together then invests the group’s money in stocks, bonds and other securities. When you invest in mutual funds, you own a part of the holdings of the fund.

After gaining an understanding of your risk tolerance, ranging from conservative to aggressive, our qualified Aviso Wealth advisors will help you determine how mutual funds can fit into your investment portfolio. We can suggest a range of options to match your investor profile and suit your investment strategy, whatever your goals.


Professional Management

Mutual funds provide full-time, high quality professional management services by pooling the resources of many hundreds of investors. The ability of the managers to select profitable investments and to sell those likely to decline in value is a key factor for the mutual fund to earn money for the investors. Investment opportunities are abundant and complex. Fund managers are expected to know what is available, the risks and gains possible, the cost of acquiring and selling the investments, and the laws and regulations in the industry.

Diversity

Diversity is a critically important part of a strong portfolio. Mutual funds are made up of many different securities (for example, stocks and bonds). By diversifying your holdings, you’re not putting all of your money in one place which helps reduce your overall risk.

Liquidity is another major benefit of mutual funds. You can purchase most mutual funds or cash them in with limited penalties (if any) on relatively short notice. This means if you need to access your money quickly you can. Mutual funds come with a flexibility that can bring peace of mind.
