Introduction to Portfolio Management
As people are increasingly tasked with securing their own long-term financial stability, portfolio and fund management has become a more critical component of the financial services offered by banks. With interest rates falling and market volatility fluctuating, individuals now face decisions between keeping money in traditional savings accounts or investing through unit trusts or portfolio products that include equities and/or bonds.
There is growing awareness among individuals that state pensions alone may not be sufficient, prompting them to seek additional ways to build wealth. Similarly, businesses that manage employee pension plans must ensure they have enough resources to meet both current and projected obligations. One effective strategy for both individual and institutional investors to potentially improve returns on savings is through investment in mutual funds or unit trusts.
