Investment Choices
Your investment objectives differ from those of other investors, so your portfolio should hold a personalized proportion of cash, bonds and stocks, or their equivalents. A given portfolio could be 100% fixed income, or 100% equities, or anything in-between. The precise mix is determined by your investment objectives and tolerance for risk.
While you can build an effective portfolio using cash, and individual bond and stock selections, you may decide that a packaged approach makes more sense for you. Managed Investment programs, Hedge Funds and Mutual Funds bring professional money management to your portfolio and eliminate the need to pick individual stocks and bonds.
Take a closer look at the investment components that you can choose from when constructing your personal investment portfolio and consider which investments make the most sense for you.
