In a world full of things to do, decisions to make, and the desire to build and create wealth, we need a clear plan towards securing our financial future. It’s great that people have long harped on two ways to help us attain this: investing and passive income.
Investing has long been a reliable method to earn passively. In the modern era of technological advancements, we’re presented with the opportunity to delve into the world of investment through GFunds and GStocks PH – both within the GInvest section of the GCash app.
GInvest is a digital investment product within the GCash app that allows Filipinos to begin their investment journey through its different investment products.
Discover ways to attain your financial goals and make the most of GCash’s investment features with these essential tips:
- Educate Yourself, know where you’re putting your money: Harness the wealth of educational resources available online. Comprehend essential stock market jargon, factors influencing stock prices, and the art of diversification. In order for you to make more informed decisions for your next investment move, it’s crucial to know the difference, like for example between GStocks PH and GFunds.
While both are GInvest products, GStocks PH is AB Capital Securities, Inc.’s (ABCSI) online retail securities trading services made accessible through the GCash app. Through ABCSI’s online platform, investors can buy, sell, and manage stocks of companies listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE).
GFunds on the other hand, is the investment marketplace feature of the GCash App that allows you to buy, manage, and sell investment funds from GCash’s trusted fund house partners.
- Diversify Wisely: Avoid risk concentration by spreading investments across different sectors and asset classes, offering a shield against market volatility.
There is no minimum top-up amount for GStocks PH, but it’s possible to begin with at least ₱1,000. While there are stocks listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange that can be bought with just a few hundreds of pesos, you may consider investing more if you have the financial means to do so and would like to focus on specific stocks. Through investing in local stocks, you get to invest in the companies and brands you know and love.
On the other hand, with GFunds, you can invest in local funds with exposure to Philippine securities with just as little as ₱50.
- Buy Regularly: When it comes to investing, buying regularly will allow one to manage market fluctuations and maximize their investments over a long period of time.
