The concept of investment companies



Investment companies are a relatively new type of financial institution for Russia. This is not surprising, because the investment company can normally function only in a market economy.

Unlike investment funds, companies only work with securities. They are engaged in the accumulation of funds and their subsequent profitable investment. Investment companies usually produce their own stock. The funds received from their sale to invest in equities. Accordingly, the income of shareholders of investment companies directly depends on how wisely we will invest. A very popular way of investing in Russia is investing in construction companies.


Investment funds can be invested in stocks and bonds of various economic enterprises. Financial risks for investors are greatly reduced, because the fall in the value of some securities raises the price of others. An important advantage for the investor is obtaining the services of the financial Manager's role which is the investment company. It turns out that the investor risks only if you select the wrong investment company.

Signs of a reliable investment company

Reliable investment company must have a license for brokerage and dealer activities and management of securities. Such a license may only be issued by the Federal service for financial markets.
