Description
This is a form of collective investment scheme whereby investors with the same investment objective(s) pool their financial resources together for the purpose of making large scale investments within the scope of the investment objective, and have these financial resources managed by an independent manager. A unit trust scheme involves three parties namely: the manager, the trustee, and the investors (who are also the unit holders).
The common types of unit trust schemes include:
1. Money Market Funds which are generally very low-risk funds offering moderate returns. They have a primary objective of investing in short term debt securities (securities that mature in less than one year ) such as treasury bills;
2. Fixed Income Funds which is also low-risk but provides investors with regular income. Investments are usually in debt securities that pay regular interests or dividends e.g. bonds, preference shares;
3. Equity Funds which invest primarily in shares of companies.
Advantages of investing in a unit trust scheme include:
1. It gives an investor access to investment opportunities that are not available to individual investors.
2. The scheme is managed by professionals who have access to specialized market information and analysis.
3. It enables investors to be able to participate in a professionally managed portfolio of investment without having to expose a large sum of money through direct investments in securities.
4. It affords an investor the opportunity of realizing all or part of his unit holding during the normal business hours of the management company.
