Mutual Funds are investment pools built by taking money from people and then investing the money in the market. Investment companies and capital management companies create Mutual Funds for people to take the benefits of less risky investments. Mutual Fund investments are normally considered less risky compared to the stock market because fund managers are experts who know where to invest for maximum benefits.

No, I have never invested in mutual funds at all. There are a few banks that tend to offer mutual fund investment schemes and packages. However, I am not really a big fan of investing money in those schemes. Having said that, mutual funds are not a "risk-free" investment as many people think.

I have been investing in mutual funds using local mobile apps for a long time, because they have been registered with government agencies, and are also safe, so I avoid fraudulent investment scams.

This is one investment opportunity I'm yet to explore. I have read about it but have never invested in mutual funds at all. Banks here do offer mutual fund investment schemes and packages.

Yes, I have invested in mutual funds for many years. I am satisfied with the return on investment. The Fund Manager is my friend. I trust her a lot and she has given me many valuable advice.

Well, the reason why such kind of companies always earn is due to the fact that they earn usury or interest! They take the money of investors and then they offer loans after confiscating the mortgage of people. This is unethical in my opinion.

This is a good investment opportunity you can always try it out if you need a legit way by which you can invest your money. But you can also invest an expert on it.

I haven't invested in mutual funds because I haven't been able to meet someone to convince me enough to invest in it with a proof that I will get a high return afterwards and not by saying alone.

In mutual funds there are several types of instruments such as money market, capital market, fixed income, mix and stock, if you face a high rate of return you will also have a high risk.

They don't earn on interest. If they do that, they would earn only when you earn and take some part. But even if they lose all your money they will charge you money for transactions and advices and maintain account.

Well, I have got some information about mutual funds. Mutual funds involves investing in financial instruments. These instruments are owned by the government. So, basically, this involves offering "loan" to the government in other words. So yes, this does involve interest money.

I heard a lot about mutual funds but I have not invested in it . Ultimately ,it is a very good investment that would give you reasonable amount of money provided you understand the intricacies on how to run it.

It is a very rare for you to see someone from Nigeria who is investing in this because investment is not popular and you may even find it hard to see someone who will guide you on it

I have never invested in it before also but I just believe that you need to have a reasonable amount of money as investment because that kind of investment needs you to have a lot of money

I wanted to start with a small amount of money as a student, but when I found out the amount of money I would be receiving as returns, I knew it wasn't really worth it without a lot of money.

I love the fact that you were able to testify. This is why I tell people that it is for people who have enough money or a lot of money so that their interest will be reasonable
