Usually, people prefer to invest in gold as it is considered a safe resource that retains its value, especially with the fluctuations in exchange rates and the waves of inflation that swept over the world.
Investment in gold can be made through investment funds.
What are Investment Funds?
– They are money bowls that are owned by thousands of investors and managed by experts that conduct studies on the best companies for investment to guarantee the highest possible return.
– These funds are used for collective investment. They are more appropriate for small investors because there are different types of them and investing in them is relatively less risky than investing directly in stock market.
– Precious Metals Mutual Funds (Gold Funds):
– These funds are traded on the exchange which allows investors to invest in metals without direct purchase and with the possibility to store and resell them.
– This is done through an instrument, issued by the fund, that determines the number of grams each investor owns.
– The investment may be made by trading in gold prices directly or by investing in companies operating in the gold mining industry.
– These funds usually attract investors that are searching for a safe investment to avoid high risks as investing in such funds is considered a safe and long-term investment that guarantees them getting their gold or its equivalent funds back in the case of exit.
