FAQ
What are the benefits of investing in equities?
The main goal of an investment in equities is to increase the value of your capital. When you invest in equity, you’re aiming to profit from capital gains and dividends. An equity fund offers investors a diversified investment option, and is popular choice of asset class across a wide range of different types of investors – including major banks, financial institutions, hedge fund managers, family offices, and self-directed or professional traders.
Investing in equities can offer investors high liquidity, limited liability, capital gains, and diversified portfolios.
What is equity trading?
Equity trading refers to the buying and selling of publicly-traded company shares through either a stock exchange, or in the form of an OTC (over the counter) product. The terms ‘equity’ market and ‘stock’ market are synonymous and interchangeable – they both refer to the purchase and sale of shares in public companies. A share of stock represents an equity interest in a company.
