Investment information

Retirement Revenue does not provide specific advice on investments. Instead we have done the research for you and put together a series of articles and information designed to help you make those difficult investment decisions with greater confidence.

Please make sure that you read our Terms and Conditions. Sorry to sound legalistic, but nothing on the Retirement Revenue site should be taken as advice. We are happy to pass on the benefit of our research and experience, but we are not advisers and we are not regulated by any authority to provide investment advice. You must always seek appropriate professional advice before making any investment decisions.

Monthly Market Update
	Monthly Market Update is supplied to Retirement Revenue by Enhance Investments Limited. It provides information on Base Rates; Foreign Exchange and a whole host of Indices including Equities, Bonds, Property and Commodities. The latest update for JULY is available now.

Setting Investment Objectives
	Most people have investments of some kind, even if these are limited to a savings account. But having investments – even if you have lots of them – does not necessarily mean you have investment objectives. And yet you could be getting a lot more out of your investments if you have suitable objectives in place as well.

Understanding ISAs
	For many people an ISA – Individual Savings Account – presents them with an opportunity to benefit from tax free savings. But in any event you should recognise the difference between the ISAs that are available, so you can choose the best one for you. In this article we explain the different types of ISA.

French Leaseback Property
	While property markets around the world have fallen victim to the credit crunch, France is proudly not one of them. The market is stable and still proving an ideal location to invest. French mortgage banks have continued their responsible lending, creating confidence in the market and allowing investors from all over the world to purchase French leaseback property.

Finding Undervalued Shares
	The father of security analysis was arguably Benjamin Graham. He believed that value investment was the only real form of investment and that anything else was merely speculation. His ideas have been adopted, modified and enhanced by the likes of Warren Buffett and similar ‘buy and hold’ investors. So how do we calculate value?

Trading Plan
	Trading plans require a lot of work and they need to be more detailed than just saying "buy low and sell high". I do not believe that there are any consistently successful traders that do not have a plan. It is the only way to succeed, whether you trade shares, commodities or foreign exchange.
