Hidden risk in income funds
Article Abstract:
It is important to be cautious about investing in a high-income fund. Investors must be aware that high-income funds invest in an extremely wide range of different forms of investment and that high yields can involve significant levels of risk. Care should be taken to investigate the fund's performance records, taking into account the fact that income may be achieved at the expense of capital growth. It is wise to choose a fund with a good reputation and a consistent track record.
