Equities

When you make an equity investment (also known as stocks and shares), you are buying ownership of a share in a particular company. Equity investments can offer attractive return potential but are often associated with a greater level of risk compared to other investments such as bonds. Many individual investors choose to make their equity investments via a fund, for which a manager will have selected a collection of what they think are the best companies to own, diversifying your investment and spreading the risk.
