Our presentation video highlights the Model Portfolio Theory by Nobel Prize-winning economist Harry Markowitz and explains how a well-diversified portfolio can benefit investors over long terms.The greater return you want, the more risk you will usually have to accept.
The greater risk you take with your investments,the greater the chance of losing some or all of your initial investment.The purpose of your investment and when you'll need access to your money will have a big impact on what types of investments are right for you.If you are saving over the short-term,it is wise not to take a large amount of capital risk.When investing for the long-term,you can afford to take more risk as your money has more time to recover from falls in the markets.Investing in shares has historically proven to be the best way to drive growth that outstrips inflation.
