Too Much Cash
A lump sum or capital investment is when you have a surplus of cash that has accumulated either on deposit or through annual bonuses, that you would like to place at one time into the global capital markets. Speaking with an advisor will give you access to solutions and information about the latest market trends, make sure you can maximize growth and returns in a wide range of markets and new areas of investment.
Our Expertise
Lump-sum strategies and portfolios require market research and detailed information in regards to when and where to place your capital. To be effective, lump-sum investments need a sum of money invested over a medium-term period or longer. Investing with a longer time frame maximizes returns and growth while minimizing the volatility and risk of your capital. With access to your capital from day one, lump-sum investments allow you more flexibility on when and how you will use this money in the future.
Make Money
Many clients may want to protect their cash holdings against the risk of inflation and the rising cost of goods and services and enjoy higher returns than they are currently getting from their bank. Other clients may choose to put their money to work for them now, as they may want to purchase a property in the future but are not yet sure where or when they are going to settle down or need the capital for investment.
