  • Fulfilling Your Investment Goals

Currently, interest rates on savings are around, or even below, zero percent. That makes what to do with your savings a burning question. If you want to make a return on your money, there’s no alternative to considering how to invest with other options.

Investing, if you do it wisely, can lead in the long run to attractive returns. There are a number of guidelines that will help you to be successful, as well as potential pitfalls to avoid. It’s crucial to understand how to invest considering the inherent risks and thus to mitigate them.

How to Invest and Compose a Portfolio

In order to create a balanced portfolio, we recommend combining different asset classes. Normally, they fluctuate in value independently of each other, which will help to reduce your portfolio’s volatility or risk. Your appetite for risk and return should determine how you mix the different asset classes.  If you are seeking higher returns and are willing to accept higher risk, you should consider allocating a larger part of your portfolio to equities and real estate. However, if you want to dial down risk, you could invest more in bonds. Select your preferred risk profile from the menu below and see what asset allocation could go with it.

Depending on your preference, we offer six strategies to choose from covering all the regular asset classes.
