In this episode, we talk about “cost averaging” vs “lump sum investing”, particulaly how cost averaging and lump sum investing both have their merits and can be used together.

We also explore active investing through individually selecting stocks, but also the utilisation of active funds which normally have a higher fee but can be more flexible and bespoke.

Passive investing became famous through Jack Bogle, the founder of the Vanguard Group, who wanted to make direct investing easy and accessible to the every day person. Through his work we now have passive index funds which have low fees and the potential to have the same performance as the market they are tracking.

There is not just one strategy that fits all. Knowledge is key in finding the investment strategy which suits you and we hope this episode helps.
