Interesting ways to a million

Article Abstract:

Compound interest indicates that small differences in rates of interest can make a very significant difference over the long term. It also indicates that time is the fourth element of investing, after returns, risks and costs. An inverse compounding effect reduces the risk of holding shares most significantly in the first five to 10 years after purchase before falling to a narrow long-term range of between 4% and 8%. Investors should be aware that the law of compounding dictates that anything that reduces the annual rate of return will have a significant long-term impact.

Tracking down the right fund

Article Abstract:

It is quite difficult for amateur investors in the UK to obtain information about tracker funds, as there is no single source giving a comprehensive list of these funds. When choosing a tracker fund, the first step is to eliminate those with very high minimum investment requirements. Investors may also feel that there is no point choosing a tracker fund that operates charges on the same basis as an actively managed fund. This would eliminate all funds with a bid/offer spread, an annual management charge of more than 1% and an initial charge of any sort.
