		<description><![CDATA[Investors seeking income can no longer rely on share dividends, and saving deposit accounts often generate a negative return when adjusted for inflation. Whilst this scenario looks set to continue for the foreseeable future, we must look elsewhere for our annual pay-outs.

Agriculture Investments

At the most basic level, agriculture investments based on the acquisition of agricultural property assets generate income, either from leased payments from tenant farmers, or shared revenue from harvests when farmed as part of a contract farming agreements (CFA).

There are a number of options for investors to consider, allowing smaller investors to take a direct stake in productive farmland and benefitting from a share of the annual income as well as potential capital growth as land values rise over time.

Such options exist in Latin America, Australia and Africa, and investors should be encouraged to seek independent advice as to the suitability of any such scheme to ensure suitability for the investors specific circumstances and attitude to risk.

Renewable Energy Investments

As the global population grows demanding more energy, and natural resources such as coal oil and gas continue to diminish, the world turns to renewable sources capable of supply energy in perpetuity without causing damage to the environment and delicate global ecosystem.

Around the world, governments incentivise investment in renewable energy technologies such as wind, solar, tidal, geo thermal, waste to energy and anaerobic digestion through feed-in-tariffs, where each unit of energy fed into the national grid is paid for at a set rate which is invariably linked to inflation.

This present those looking for income capture annual revenue that shares no correlation with traditional income investment assets or financial market fundamentals. Investors may choose to establish solar panels or wind turbines, collecting feed in tariffs from energy generated.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The current economic climate, defined by low interest rates, volatile equity markets and poor short-term visibility, is leading Investors of all shapes and sizes to investigate alternative investment assets in an effort to boost portfolio performance whilst also reducing exposure to traditional assets like equities.

Forestry is one sector where investment returns are driven more by the biological growth of trees into valuable timber than traditional growth fundamentals. Forestry also provides a shelter for capital, and superior compound growth, even during falling markets.

Institutional Investors have led the charge into forestry investments with Pension Funds and Hedge Funds acquiring timberland properties as part of their diversification strategy. This has led to the emergence of a plethora of forestry investment products aimed at the retail Investor.

With options to acquire small forestry plots within large, managed plantations in Brazil, Costa Rica, Panama, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Thailand, Nicaragua, Australia and New Zealand, potential Investors could be forgiven for feeling confused, and the lack of quality information about the sector for Financial Advisors leads many to divert their Clients attention to other, more traditional investment assets like residential or commercial property, or even equities.

In this article we look into the main concerns regarding these retail forestry investments, and look to how risk can be properly assessed and mitigated.

The main issue regarding the vast majority of direct forestry investment products on the market is the basic structuring of the product.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The abundance of investment products and investment information available today can be intimidating and confusing to many investors, both novice and professional. Over my twenty-plus years as an attorney and investment adviser, I have tried to help others focus on some of the critical information in order to avoid unnecessary investment losses, to help level the playing field against some of the ne'er-do-well that continue to defraud the public and plague the financial services industry.

Speaking with a colleague the other day, he commented on the fact that a lot of the important information we get through trade publications such as InvestmentNews rarely seem to get mentioned in the mainstream media and press. And when we mention such information to clients, they often comment on how useful such information would have been.

After my conversation with my colleague, I started thinking about some of the "inside" information I have shared with my clients that produced the most reaction and appreciation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Part One of this article, we highlighted strategies that proactive investors can use to better protect their financial security. The strategies mentioned in Part One were more oriented toward the investment account as a whole.

However, most securities claims involve allegations of unsuitability and/or breach of fiduciary duty regarding investment products and/or investment advisory services. Given the number of investment options available to investors today, it is easy for an unscrupulous stockbroker or investment adviser to take advantage of an investor, especially an inexperienced investor.

The following strategies can be used by the proactive investors to avoid some of the more common complaints in securities claims.

		<description><![CDATA[The Junior ISA will likely be launched in November 2011 and has in some ways been designed as a replacement for the Child Trust Fund, which was discontinued after the current government came to power.

What was the Child Trust Fund?

The Child Trust Fund was introduced by the previous Labour government to encourage saving on behalf of children. Parents were given a Â£250 CTF voucher when their child was born that they could invest in a choice of investment products. They were given another Â£250 voucher upon their child's seventh birthday, although few reached this age before the scheme was discontinued.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the current financial marketplace, with low interest rates and market volatility, getting a really good return on your investments is difficult to achieve. Most investors are always looking for that special product or stock that offers extra special returns. However, to get the sort of returns that are significantly above average requires not just excellent research, analysis, financial advice - and luck; it also requires courage, as you are entering into the realms of risk-taking.

It is a truism that risk and reward go hand in hand - the bigger the potential investment return, the greater the potential risk of loss.]]></description>

Online brokerages and other websites enable anyone of legal age to engage in buying and selling stocks, bonds, currency, commodities, and precious metals. Because investing online is both easy and risky, if you are inexperienced with trading, take every precaution, research well every investment firm and every investment prospect, and invest slowly and with extreme caution.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having given due consideration to the strategies in Part 1, let's now consider other tax effective investments to help children with the costs of higher education.

Trust Arrangements

In cases where the donor is confident that the child will have a mature disposition at age 18, a bare trust based investment will offer maximum tax efficiency.

Where more control is required over the investment so that there is, in effect, a "wait and see" approach before the child benefits at age 18, a discretionary trust may be more appropriate.

We will now look at these in more detail. Clearly, in either case, the underlying investment should be made to achieve maximum tax efficiency within the constraints of the required investment parameters.

It is not generally legally possible (although certain life policy exceptions do exist) to make outright gifts of assets to minor children and obtain a valid legal discharge. Indeed, it is not often advisable from a practical standpoint.]]></description>

Some of these cases can be brought in court; most are required to be arbitrated before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

		<description><![CDATA[Many wealth managers approach investors positioning themselves as "trusted advisors". Can you develop this type of relationship with someone who is compensated for selling product, or should you seek out a wealth manager who operates without conflicts of interest between the firm and the client? As more independent advisors arise, this question will present itself more frequently to investors.

One of the biggest complaints investors have is that they feel they are being "steered" towards specific investments by their advisor. Frequently, these products are manufactured and/or managed by the firm that employs the relationship manager.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most people enter the investment arena thinking that "Risk" is a board game they played in college. Today, I would guess that the majority of investors have never owned an individual share of common stock or a Municipal Bond.

The popularity of investment products has heightened the risk for all investors and has indirectly led to many of the policy errors that threaten both capitalism and the economic fabric of America. Market prices are increasingly and inappropriately influenced by decision-making based only on the derivatives that contain them.

Few people consider the investment risk associated with public policy decisions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You might have come across this dilemma, which investment product to choose - ULIP or Fixed Deposits? First let's understand what these two products -

ULIPs vs Fixed Deposits - Which is better for you?

Before you zero on any of these products, answer the following questions?

a) What kind of investor are you?

a) Risk taking b) Conservative

If you are a conservative investor, FDs is better than ULIPs. If you are a risk taking investor, you can consider ULIPs.

b) What is the tenure for your investment

a) Less than 3 years b) More than 3 years

If your investment tenure is less than 3 years, FDs is better than ULIPs. If you are a long term investor, ULIPs are better.

c) What is the Rate of return you are expecting?

If you are expecting a fixed rate of return (rate provided by the FD Provider), Fixed Deposits is better than ULIPs

d) What are the tax benefits on the returns?

Return on FDs is taxable whereas withdrawal of ULIP investment is tax free.

Note - These questions are based considering the two investment products - ULIP and FD.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are many good things to say about investing in wine, especially when compared to other investment products typically available to investors. For one thing it can give fantastic yields of up to 30% a year, and has also out performed the stock market for three decades.

Wine is good as both a short term investment (one year) and long term investment (5 years) and is hedged by the fact that it is always in demand with an ever diminishing supply.

Wine is less volatile than the stock market, and is backed by a real non speculative market to be sold onto which helps keep the prices from massive fluctuations.

Wine is a tangible asset that you own, which can give you grater security to that of money invested into a fund, which may end up being used as working capital.

Unlike other investments wine has a low barrier to entry and is suitable for investors from a wide range of financial status.

Unlike stocks and shares you don't need to be an expert to make money with investing in wine, if you choose the right merchant they should be able to give you all the advice you need to get the right portfolio up and running.

No capital gains tax in the UK, in England wine is considered as a wasting asset and is except from paying capital gains tax on the profits of your investment.

Freedom to sell when ever you like, it is fairly easy to sell on and cash in your wine investment which gives you a level of liquidity that may be lacking from other investment opportunities.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What is the best type of investment? The short answer is 'it depends'. There are a number of factors to take into consideration when investing a lump sum.

What is your investment time frame?

Your investment time frame ends when you need access to your investment capital rather than the income from that capital. In general, if you need your capital within five years, it will be best to put your money into an investment with a fixed value to avoid the risk of making a loss.

Do you need income from the investment?

Investments can produce a return by way of income (interest or dividends) or capital gain (increase in the value of the investment) or a combination of the two.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Options trading can bring you great rewards....provided you are prepared to take the time and learn how to trade options properly.

However a question often heard is:

"If options trading is so great and can make you loads of money.... and is not that risky then why isn't everybody doing it?"

A fair question and one which could take over an hour to answer!

However the short answer is twofold.

Firstly options are still a relatively new financial product. This means that their existence is broadly out of the public eye.]]></description>

Unlike savings, which serve short-term financial goals like buying a new car or establishing an emergency fund, investments are intended to meet your long-term financial goals, including providing for a child's college education or your retirement.

Regardless of income, the money that you do have needs to be managed. The best investment products for you will be determined by your long-term financial goals.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For many individuals, the thought of investing their money in stocks, securities and bonds can be a scary proposition. For some, images of Bernard Madoff coupled with the recession makes for a very risky market indeed. You have probably heard of too many banks, insurance companies and investment houses folding under the pressure of the recession as well as the domino effect of fraudulent Ponzi schemes.

For others, you probably think that the investment world is so complicated and complex that it is confusing to all but the likes of Warren Buffett.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How soon would you want to know if your investment advisor wasn't telling you about the three major investment types? If you've only heard of two - Variable and Fixed, then you may have a problem.

Unfortunately, many investment advisors routinely fail to present all three types: Variable, Fixed, and Indexed as valid investment choices to their clients. This is normally because they are unable to offer all three options or they have a personal dislike for one or more of these investment types.

So what is the difference in these investment types and what do the terms mean? The simplest answer is that these terms define how interest is earned on your investment. More specifically, it tells you how your money is invested and if your money is protected from market fluctuations.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After years of losing money to a series of investment professionals from various banks and brokerage firms, I decided to use their tools on my own to see what kind of results I could achieve. Hopefully you can do the same. This is not a system or a get rich quick scheme. This is hard work but it will get you the results that your broker cannot provide. 

Does this sound familiar? I have lost thousands of dollars or more in the markets and I was investing through a reputable broker or financial expert. I made this statement around the year 2000 after firing my 3rd broker on three years. After all the lying, arrogance, misrepresentation and down right dishonesty, I was through with brokers and brokerage firms. They had unwittingly given me the tools that I needed to take control of my own portfolio and out perform any result that I ever achieved with a brokerage firm.  

Most investors have received the basic education from the investment professional about asset allocation, investment mix and risk tolerance. These are the foundation of good long term investment. You can easily do this for yourself and save the broker or management fees. When the average investment is returning less than 10 percent, what sense is it to give away 2 or 3 percent to some guy in a suit just for doing some paperwork? There is just one last thing that the professionals know that we don't. What are the good investments and how do we pick them?  

One common tools that all of my former investment professionals used bar none were Bell Charts. These nifty charts were a rating system for mutual funds that took into account everything from the profitability of a fund to the expense ratio to how they perform against funds in the same category. This way, if you want to put say 20 percent of your portfolio into a bond fund, you could see at a glance which funds were performing the best for that category of investment. The biggest mistake that my last brokers made was to say that they would never let my money stay in an under-performing fund. When I fired them, most of my funds had slipped into the bottom 25 percent of the fund categories and they could not give me a good reason why.  

So, I opened an online brokerage account and moved all of my investments into it. Over two years I sold off my old investments. They were mostly rear loaded so I timed selling them when fees were lowest. I used my cash from these sales to buy new funds that I selected using information from Morningstar. This is a site that offers Bell Charts that you and I can use! Within a short time it was obvious that my brokers picks were not performing half as well as what I had selected using the Bell Charts from Morningstar. I had to figure out my asset mix but that only took a few minutes. Now I am making money and I am left wondering what I used to pay those guys in suits for anyway?

Morningstar has a variety of powerful investment tools for the private and professional investor.]]></description>
