A mutual fund is a pool of money and investments (e.g. stocks, bonds and other types of investments) that are managed by a professional fund manager.

A mutual fund typically focuses on specific types of investments. For example, a fund may invest in:

  • high-quality government and corporate bonds,
  • stocks from large companies,
  • stocks from certain countries,
  • stocks in certain industries, or
  • a mix of stocks and bonds.

When you purchase units in a mutual fund, a professional manager will buy and sell stocks and bonds on your behalf. They’ll manage all the buy-and-sell decisions, so you won’t have to.

Fund managers have extensive experience and deep research capabilities in selecting investments.

Diversification means having a mix of investments that behave differently in different market conditions. A diversified portfolio contains a range of investments that helps spread your risk and protect you from the ups and downs of the market. 

It means a professional money manager invests on your behalf, making decisions on what to buy or sell. The goal is usually to outperform a market index.

Our advisors are salaried. It doesn’t cost you anything to meet with a Prospr advisor. You will always get disclosure of any fees you need to pay before purchasing a product.
