abstract |
Having identified a need to save or invest, private investors have a wide range of
assets and products to choose from. There are many different types of savings and
investment product, with a variety of different features. Some offer income, some
capital gain, others both; some have guarantees, some do not; charges may be explicit
or subsumed into the interest rate offered; and tax treatment may vary. But whatever
the make-up of the product, the attributes come down to three basic features that
can be characterised by the questions:
<br></br><br></br>
<i>How much</i> will the return be?<br></br>
<i>When</i> will the return be paid?<br></br>
<i>What is the risk</i> that the amount or timing of the return might not turn out
as expected? |
