		<description><![CDATA[The investment market can be complex to navigate, especially for the novice, and knowing the characteristics and details of any product that you are considering investing in is an important step in building a successful investment portfolio. Structured bonds, which come in a wide variety of guises, can be particularly complicated.

What is a structured Bond?

Sometimes know as structured products, or structured deposits, they can be offered with the potential to generate a regular income or capital growth.

Such bonds are usually put together by the provider to suit the needs of a particular type of investor. This means that finding the right structured bond product for your needs will depend on your individual circumstances.

Different types of product will provide different levels of risk and return.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investors are increasingly forced to choose from a proliferation of investment options. They also have to deal with contradictory advice on how to achieve their financial goals and how to invest the savings they have accumulated during their lifetime. If you consider that there are more than 7 000 mutual funds available in the United States alone, and thousands of insurance products worldwide, making the choice that will satisfy them ever after is daunting, to say the least.

No wonder people so often ask the rather general question: Which investment is best? The first part of the answer is easy: No single investment is 'the best' under all circumstances for all investors.]]></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>

Essentially, it is what you get back in return for making an investment in a product, project or business.

Here are two simple examples:

		<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). In either venue, however, many of these cases have common themes, which teach important lessons about investing.

The financial industry spends millions of dollars convincing the investing public that it can predict with some accuracy the future price movements stocks.]]></description>

While traditional investment strategies have produced lackluster returns recently, there has been a growing interest in alternative asset classes.

		<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>

Managing the 10 most prevalent investment risks:

Time Horizon - the amount of time you can spare to have your money tied up in an investment. Investment mismatch is where money that is earmarked for the short term is invested in a long term strategy and vice versa. The riskiest type of mismatch is where money is being saved for the very long term, 20 years or longer, and the portfolio is invested in short term investment strategies.]]></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.

		<description><![CDATA[It may seem like an impossible task to invest on a low income, but the benefits far outweigh the sacrifices. 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>

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.
