What type of investments are right for you? You’ve likely heard the old adage, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” In the financial services industry, this is referred to as “diversification.” By diversifying and investing in a variety of assets, you can reduce any one particular risk. The question your financial services provider should ask you is: What rate of return or interest growth do you want your money to make? Is it 2%, 4%, 6%, or 10%? This will determine whether a Conservative, Moderate, Growth or Aggressive portfolio mix is right for you and your financial situation.
