How Investment Fund Savings Plans Work

How Investment Fund Savings Plans Work

The Investment fund savings plan is a way of investing in investment funds. With it, you can regularly invest a certain amount from your personal account in the Investment fund savings plan.

Invest regularly

Regularly buying fund units averages out the purchase price. That minimizes the risk of investing at the wrong time.

Find the right product

Which Investment fund savings plan is right for you? It depends on your risk tolerance and return expectations. The return varies depending on the investment fund you choose.

3

Choose from three options

Fixed, flexible and balance. Our Investment fund savings plan comes in three different styles. We’ll help you pick the option that suits your needs best.

Our Investment Fund Savings Plan

Our Investment Fund Savings Plan

Initial deposit

The initial deposit is at least CHF 100 (or EUR/USD 125).

Savings contribution

You decide how often and how much to contribute. The minimum amount per period is CHF 100 (or EUR/USD 125).

Availability

Fund units can be redeemed at any time.

Choose Your Savings Scheme

Fixed. The consistent solution

You regularly invest a fixed savings contribution of at least CHF 100 from your Private account in the Investment fund savings plan, as long as the account has the necessary credit balance on the execution date.

Flexible. The individual solution

You decide how much you want to save and when. We open a free account for you that directly invests any credit balance of CHF 100 or more in your Investment fund savings plan.

Balance. The variable solution

You decide how much money, at minimum, you want your Private account to have on a particular date. If your balance exceeds this minimum threshold by more than CHF 100 on the execution date, we’ll invest the excess directly in your Investment fund savings plan.

Collective Investing

Collective Investing

The Investment fund savings plan is a way of investing in investment funds. Money invested by multiple investors is pooled to form the assets of a fund. These assets are invested in a range of asset classes, such as money market investments, bonds, equities or real estate.

Active fund management

Investment funds are actively managed. In other words, experts make concrete investment decisions within certain constraints (investment strategy).

Low risk

Diversification keeps the risk of loss low. If the fund company declares bankruptcy, investors will be entitled to their assets.

Manifold opportunities

Investment funds let you invest in otherwise inaccessible markets and participate in market movements with even small investments.

Assess Risks

You can earn superior returns with investment funds. But every opportunity carries risk. Educate yourself about the possible risks of investment funds.
