Experts recommend that, by investing through a process called ‘dollar-cost-averaging’, people can devote a fixed amount of money each month, which will provide long-term growth.

The dollar-cost-averaging approach advocates investing the same amount of money each month regardless of a stock’s share price — buying more shares when the price is low, and fewer shares when they are high.

“People are running away from regional and international capital markets at the moment, but the weak prices provide a real opportunity. Sensible fixed-amount investments will allow investors to save for the future, while off-setting major moves in the markets. Equity investing has always historically rewarded the patient investor,” explained Nigel Watson, Sales and Marketing Director, Nexus Group.
