Help yourself to profits of doom

Article Abstract:

Investors prepared to take risks may see considerable rewards from investing in Russia and Asia, even though the value of investments in these emerging markets has slumped considerably over recent years. Emerging markets have much more potential for growth than more established ones, and greater motivation may also lead to higher productivity. It is worth considering investment funds that stretch across all emerging markets. Some experts believe that investment trusts, rather than unit trusts, are the most appropriate type of fund for those looking to invest in emerging markets.

Small business? Think big

Article Abstract:

Venture capital trusts (VCTs) offer an attractive way of investing in small businesses. VCTs are quoted companies, with investors participating by purchasing shares in them. VCTs bring considerable risk, but the risk is spread. A further safeguard is that the London Stock Exchange must approve each VCT prospectus, thus ensuring that only those with experience are permitted to launch funds. The investment success of VCTs is hard to assess, as there is very limited demand for VCT shares once issued.
