Investa has partnered with some of the best performing mutual fund companies in the Philippines: PhilEquity, BPI, SunLife and ATRAM. Partnerships were made with these companies to promote financial inclusion and affordable investing to millions of Filipinos! With Investa, you can buy their funds with ease! Here is a quick overview of what each mutual fund company offer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- PhilEquity – The ideal choice for investors who wish to engage in the stock market but lack the time and knowledge to do so is Philequity Fund (PEFI), which has been acknowledged for its exceptional record since its founding in 1994.<\/li>
- BPI – Focuses on funds that emphasize on inexpensive and lower beta names, shorter durations, and diversification strategies consistent with capital preservation in order to generate appealing risk-adjusted returns.<\/li>
- SunLife – Is a leading international financial services organization providing protection and wealth products, financial planning and retirement solutions.<\/li>
- ATRAM – Suitable for investors with a moderately aggressive risk profile while also being managed by an award-winning fixed income team.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Of course, this is just a very generalized overview of their fund management methodology. If you wish to learn more about their specialized approaches to the different funds they offer, you would have to go over the specific fund\u2019s prospectus, which will be talked about later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be asked to sign some forms and agreements after you provide your information. Documents will also be needed in order to verify your identity.

Risk Profile<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Financial market investing is always risky to some extent. The degree of risk a person is ready to tolerate while investing is known as their risk profile or risk appetite. Before you can invest in mutual funds, you will need to fill out a risk profile survey which will help determine a proper investment asset allocation for your portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Risk](\"https:\/\/dailymedia.investagrams.com\/investadaily\/2022\/10\/image-633d0f5af26a9-473x1024.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThere are 3 types of risk profile scores: Conservative, Moderate & Aggressive<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Conservative – prioritizes asset preservation above capital growth.<\/li>
- Moderate – equal importance to lowering risks and maximizing revenue<\/li>
- Aggressive – may aim for financial gain despite the potential risks of the investments.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Made a mistake or want to update your risk appetite? Investa allows its users to do so by contacting their user support email support@investa.ph<\/p>\n\n\n\n
