"Investigate before you invest," advises John Lcybourne, director of enforcement for the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). "Many people with limited 1 amounts of money to invest arc turning to mutual funds and they are largely happy with the results. But you have to choose carefully to be sure the fund meets your individual needs." Operated by professional money managers, mutual funds are investment pools. The company operating the pool sells shares to the public and reinvests the money in a variety of stocks, bonds or other securities. Shareholders don't have to spend hours following stock market activities, since all the buying decisions arc made by the fund's managers. By purchasing shares in a fund, investors gel a stake in all securities owned by the pool. Many fund shareholders might otherwise only be able to afford a small investment in a single company. Mutual funds can buy large blocks of stock at good prices because of the quantities involved. The pools also allow shareholders to balance the risks inherent in any type of investment. Some funds buy shares in highly risky, but potentially lucrative companies to give shareholders a chance at large returns. The same fund may also have large shareholdings in low risk ventures, offering limited, but steady returns. This gives shareholders a measure of security. Certain funds only buy into speculative, high risk areas, while others go to the opposite ' extreme, with holdings concentrated in conservative, blue chip investments. "The trick is to pick a fund that is most likely to help meet your financial goals," says Leybourne. "If your investment is aimed at bringing in a steady income for retirement, you should steer away from risking it in a speculative fund and instead, look into a pool offering safer securities." Funds are required by law to produce a package of background information called ■! : a r prospectus, containing , financial statements, détails about the company's holdings, and an explanation of how the firm operates. When shopping for a fund, study each company's prospectus carefully, Leybourne advises. "It may be dry, but it's required reading to ensure you know what you're going to get," he says. "You should also explain your financial goals and current financial status to the sales broker. It is illegal for a securities dealer to sell you a plan that is totally unsuitable for your needs." There are various ways to buy into a mutual fund, but whether you sign up for installment purchases or simply buy a group of shares at one time, there will be a sales fee involved. For regular purchase plans, the fee is often deducted from your initial payment and averages eight to nine percent of the total value of shares to be purchased. Called "front- end loading", this practice effectively reduces the number of shares bought with the first payment. "For example, an investor may decide to buy $1,200 worth of shares in a fund annually, paying $100 a month and accumulating shares as the payments are made," Leybourne says. "If the company charges a $100 front- end loaded sales fee, the first payment would be used up by the fee and the investor would not actually own any shares in the fund until the second payment is made." Information about all fees must be in the prospectus. If you don't understand how the fee system works, ask the broker to explain it. "Remember, you will have to keep your money invested in the fund at least long enough to recoup the management or sales fees, otherwise you'll lose money," says Leybourne. "Mutual, funds are not designed for short term investments." The number of people borrowing money to invest in mutual funds is growing. Financial benefits, including tax breaks, can be gained by taking out loans for investment purposes but Leybourne says the risks involved can be overwhelming. "It's easy to borrow money for investments these days, but you must never forget that these loans have to be repaid - perhaps even overnight," says Leybourne. "If, for example, you pledge mutual fund unils as collateral for the loan and the value of your units drops, the lender could demand immediate repayment or ask for more collateral. This can be disasterous for some people." Questions or concerns about companies operating mutual funds in Ontario should he directed to the OSC at (410 963-0242. Photographically Speaking . . . Dramatic Closeups like this one of the stigma of a blaze-red hibiscus blossom are eçisy to take if you use the proper approach arid equipment. The photographer relied on a 1:1 macro lens mounted on a tripod to minimize blurring due to camera motion. The lighting -- the key to this shot's success -- consisted of strong natural sidelighting. The 1 black in the background is shade behind the flower. Notice how close focusing and a wide lens aperture created shallow depth-of-field, resulting in a soft, pleasing background.
