In
finance, investment is putting money into an asset with the expectation
of capital appreciation, dividends, and/or interest earnings. This may
or may not be backed by research and analysis. Most or all forms of
investment involve some form of risk, such as investment in equities,
property, and even fixed interest securities which are subject, among
other things, to inflation risk.
In finance, investment is
the purchase of an asset or item with the hope that it will generate
income or appreciate in the future and be sold at the higher price.It
generally does not include deposits with a bank or similar institution.
The term investment is usually used when referring to a long-term
outlook. This is the opposite of trading or speculation, which are
short-term practices involving a much higher degree of risk. Financial
assets take many forms and can range from the ultra safe low return
government bonds to much higher risk higher reward international stocks.
A good investment strategy will diversify the portfolio according to
the specified needs.
