5 What is investing?
6 Definition Invest: To put (money) to use, by purchase or expenditure, in something offering potential profitable returns, as interest, income or appreciation in value (Dictionary.com) The underlying principles of sound investment should not alter from decade to decade, but the application of these principles must be adapted to significant changes in the financial mechanisms and climate. Rule No. 1: Never lose money. Rule No. 2: Never forget Rule No. 1. If you want to have better performance than the crowd, you must do things differently from the crowd.
7 Types of investments
8 Real assets vs. financial assets Real assets Physical materials used to produce goods and services E.g., land, buildings, equipment, knowledge E.g., auto manufacturing plant Financial assets Claims to the income generated by real assets Securities issued by companies as a means of funding E.g., stocks, bonds E.g., shares in the auto manufacturing company
9 Fixed income securities A form of debt, also known as: bonds, credit Stream of income payments determined by a specified formula A form of borrowing Key components include: Principal: the value the company borrows Interest: the payment to the holders of fixed income securities by the borrower, usually expressed as a percentage of principal Maturity: the date when the principal payment is due Examples include: Money market instruments: short-term, liquid, low risk investments (e.g., Treasury bills, certificates of deposit) Government bonds: fixed income securities issued by governments and usually considered to be low risk Corporate bonds: fixed income securities issued by companies
10 Risks to fixed income Credit risk / Default risk Losses in the event the borrower fails to pay interest and/or principal Interest rate risk Losses due to interest rate movements (typically upward) Inflation risk Rising prices in the economy eroding the purchasing power of principal and interest payments

17 Mutual funds A mutual funds is a type of investment company Other types: unit trusts, commingled funds, real estate investment trusts (REITs), hedge funds Financial intermediaries that collect funds from investors and invest them in a potentially wide range of securities or other assets Each investor has a claim to the company proportionate to the amount invested Pooling money allows investors to access a larger number of securities in a potentially less costly fashion Funds can vary by investment policy Equity funds Bond funds Money market funds
