Unit Trusts

Guide: Fund Investing

Investment period

There is no minimum investment period and funds can be bought or sold on a daily basis.

It should be appreciated however, that as Unit Trusts and OEIC's are investments in the stock market, they should not be considered a short-term investment.

Typically you should be prepared to leave the money invested for at least three to five years, although you may find the markets move in the intervening period and allow you an opportunity to cash in at a useful profit.
