Understanding investments can be like learning a different language. Investment professionals use terminology which, while native tongue to them, is often unrecognisable to those not in the investment community. At Rathbones, we believe in education to enhance your understanding of the wealth management environment. Once you understand your money, you are better equipped to make informed decisions. This course is suitable for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of how investments work, from the most basic cash deposit to more complex investment instruments. In this session, the experts at Rathbones will demystify the jargon and explain in plain English how these investments work and why you may wish to select them.
