You know you need life insurance – but you’re not sure which kind is best for you. There are two main kinds of life insurance:
• Permanent, which lasts for your entire life. Premiums can be more expensive, but you can also use the policy to build up cash value.
• Term, which is only good for a set amount of time. Premiums are less expensive, and you cannot build up cash value – but coverage is easy to get and understand.
We can help you determine which type of insurance is best for you and how much it will cost you.
Investing in a fund involves knowing its associated costs, and the Management Expense Ratio (MER) is a crucial factor to consider. The MER is a percentage of the total assets in the investment fund that covers the fund’s operating and management costs. It’s important to note that the MER is subtracted from your investment returns, so a higher MER will result in lower net returns for you. For example, if a fund’s expenses amounted to 2% of its assets, its MER would be 2%. It’s crucial to understand the MER of a fund to make informed investment decisions and ensure that you’re getting the most value for your money. In this article and infographic, we will break down the various components of the MER to help you better understand it.
