Don’t forget to diversify your investments

  • Spread out your risk by having only a portion of your wealth in any single unit trust. You can also consider investing in several different unit trusts or in other investments as ways of spreading out your risks.

 

  • Consider ETFs or ‘Exchange-Traded Funds’. In western markets, there is increasing pressure on fund management companies to reduce fees. This has caused an increase in demand for ETFs which have similar benefits as a unit trust but with much lower fees and the ability to make changes without incurring such high costs.
