Diversification advantage Mutual funds offer the investor the benefit of maximum diversification, with minimal exposure to any one stock. You pool your investment with the combined capital of other investors, which allows everyone to invest in many companies, not just focus on two or three larger stocks.
Fund managers usually diversify among at least 20 companies, investing no more than 10% of the fund’s total dollars into any one security.
Other advantages of mutual funds
• You can buy additional units of a mutual fund at any time.
• An automatic purchase plan called dollar-cost averaging (DCA) lets you invest equal amounts at regularly scheduled intervals. You buy more fund units when the prices are lower, fewer when prices are higher, thus averaging out the price of the units purchased.
• Mutual funds can be registered in RRSPs or RRIFs.
• Dividends, where applicable, are easily reinvested.
• Some fund companies allow transfers between their funds without charge.
