PLANNING YOUR
INVESTMENT
There are many reasons for investing,
including planning for retirement or investing
for your children’s future. Whatever your
reason, NFU Mutual can help.
If you have a lump sum of money, or are
regularly saving into a bank or building
society, the chances are that any return is
probably not keeping pace with inflation at
the moment.
So if you have funds available to invest
over and above a suitable reserve of readily
accessible money in a cash account, other
investment options may provide the potential
for a better return.
Whether the cash you have available for
investment comes from income, an
inheritance, or the proceeds of a property
or business sale, there are many choices
open to you that could improve the potential
return on your money.
PERSONALISING YOUR
INVESTMENT
You need to take the time to consider your own personal circumstances and goals to decide
which investment is best for you.
The questions you need to ask yourself are:
• Do you want to invest a lump sum, regular amount or both?
• Do you have a set goal in mind?
• Are you looking for capital growth, income, or both?
• How long can you tie up the money you have available for investment?
• How much risk are you comfortable with?
• Do you need to consider the needs of dependants?
