What Are Managed Investments?Managed investments are funds which are coordinated by a professional financial advisor. The advisor's responsibility is to research and then invest in a variety of stock options. Managed investments are a mixture of many types of investment vehicles including stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. The benefit of managed investments is that your money is pooled with the money of other investors. This allows for a large amount of money to be invested, creating a stronger more expansive investment portfolio. For example, New Zealand has large managed funds totaling over $50 billion dollars. There are several types of managed investments that include unit trusts, group investments, superannuation funds, and insurance bonds. Each of these investment types have their own attributes and differ on legal issues, taxes, and ownership. If you are interested in a managed investment program it is important to research each of these and make a decision based on which one fits your needs. Source: Ezine
