The right investment
for our future
By Linda Henhoeffer
Financial Advisor
In the 1970s experts predicted by the turn of this century we would be
working three days a week and leisure activities would fill most of our
time.
Surprise! Here we are in the 1990s busier than ever. With companies
and governments cutting staff many of us have had to set up our own
business. Today most women work, even those with young children.
Fathers have to fill in the gap by helping with childcare, housework and
other chores traditionally done by 'moms'.
All of us have many time-saving machines in our work places and
homes; such as computers, fax machines and dishwashers. These
machines make our 'work' easier and faster, but we do not seem to have
more time.
When we are so busy with our work, families and volunteer activities,
how can we possibly find the time to look after our savings properly?
Mutual Funds are the answer for many of us. Why?
FULL TIME MONEY MANAGER
Investing our savings in a mutual fund means we have hired a full time,
trained and experienced manager to look after our investments for us. The
mutual fund manager does time consuming tasks such as researching a
company's financial status, product potential and market outlook.
The mutual fund manager also evaluates information and statistics in
regards to economic outlook, bank interest rates, government policies,
etc. How will these factors influence a company's future success? To
assist the manger in this demanding process, each mutual fund manager
has staff whose only job is to do 'number crunching' on computer
programs to analyze all this data.
For most of us, it is difficult to find the time to read the business section
in our daily papers. For most of us, it is even more difficult to evaluate
and analyze this vast amount of information. But, this is a necessary
process to make wise investment decisions. Data collecting and analysis
becomes almost impossible when considering investments in international
companies. Global economies, currencies and governmental policies
would have to be monitored and assessed. By putting our savings into a
mutual fund, we have hired a professional money manager to do this
'work' for us.
DIVERSIFICATION
Another advantage to investing in mutual funds is the instant
diversification. For example, buying shares of Trimark's Select Growth
mutual fund gives us shares of 46 companies from around the world. The
diversification is not only geographical, but also economical. We would
have shares in companies of many industries: computer, consumer
products, drugs, restaurants, communication and manufacturing. Could
we afford to buy shares in such diverse companies if we were to buy
stocks on our own?
ACCOUNTABILITY
The Ontario Securities Commission regulates the mutual fund industry,
setting out rules and constantly monitoring mutual fund companies'
actions. One rule is that mutual fund companies must evaluate and
publish the share value of each of their mutual funds daily. This makes it
easy for us to check our investments in our daily newspaper.
With our busy lives, it is helpful to invest our savings in a mutual fund
and have a professional money manager take care of our investments for
us.
