A. Background
The essence of an investment fund is the collective investment of the funds of investors. An investor is the owner of units which, depending on the legal form, can be shares, participations or interests in an investment fund.
There are various types of investment funds depending on whether they are available to the general public, whether they are open ended, etc.
Investing through an investment fund offers significant advantages as compared to individual investing, such as:
· reduction of risk through diversification
· sharing of operating and administrative costs (commissions, etc.)
· wider choice of investments
