What Is an Investment Company?

An investment company is a financial intermediary that pools the funds of individual investors and invests in many securities or other assets. "Concentrated assets" is the core meaning behind securities investment companies. In the securities portfolio established by the investment company, each investor enjoys the right to claim the asset portfolio according to the proportion of the investment amount. These investment companies provide a mechanism for small investors to organize themselves to reap the benefits of large-scale investments.

Differentiating an investment company based on its business content

In China's financial market, investment companies generally appear as "investment banks". As the name suggests, investment companies must have a large amount of their own funds in order to realize real investment operations. At the same time, due to the difficulty of the investment work itself, another type of intermediary company is needed to serve investment companies and enterprises. As a result, there have been many investment consulting companies in the market. The consulting companies do not have real investment capabilities, but only invest In the event, matchmaking between the project party and the funder, and the consultant fee will be collected from it.

There is no uniform standard for the business scope of a general investment company. The business scope that can be reported can refer to other categories.

In the United States, based on investments in 1940

Although investment companies centralize the management of individual investors 'money, investment companies also need to distinguish between investors' claims on assets. Investors purchase shares in investment companies, and their ownership is divided according to the number of shares purchased. The value of each share is called the net asset value (NAV). Net asset value is the reflection of the market value of assets minus debt on each share.

Asset market value minus liabilities

Net asset value = total number of shares outstanding

1. First explain the country's views on investing in gold. The state allows individuals to indirectly invest in various gold investment varieties in Shanghai through the Shanghai Gold Exchange. However, the state has not banned individuals from investing in spot gold, so individuals can invest in spot gold through overseas investment institutions. Why do you say that you can invest in spot gold through overseas institutions? This is because individuals in the Mainland can only speculate in gold through banks, Shanghai Gold Exchange and other nationally recognized institutions. However, there is no open spot gold business among the institutions recognized by the state. In other words, no domestic institution can be qualified to act as an agent to speculate in spot gold. So only through overseas institutions can speculation in spot gold. And why can Hong Kong institutions act as clients to speculate in spot gold? Because Hong Kong is a financially open city, China has retained many of Hong Kong's original policies after reclaiming Hong Kong's sovereignty.

2. How to find a trading investment company in Hong Kong. Hong Kong trading investment companies have agents or offices in the Mainland (to serve Mainland customers and develop business), so individuals can use their investment companies to trade spot gold through agents or offices.

3. How to distinguish whether an investment company of a mainland company is a Hong Kong investment company acting as a proxy or a fake investment company developed by itself. First of all, when contacting mainland companies, you can clearly ask where the investment companies they represent are. If they answered that the investment company was their own, it was clearly a fake investment company. And if they answer it is an investment company in Hong Kong. Then you can ask what is the number of the investment company you represent in the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Trade Fair.

4. Some questions about Hong Kong investment companies. Investment companies in Hong Kong usually have a spread of 0.5 (the gold price may be adjusted during special periods), and a standard lot of 8,000 Hong Kong dollars (the gold price may be adjusted during special periods). The commission per standard lot is about 400 Hong Kong dollars. Generally, Hong Kong investment companies settle in Hong Kong dollars or US dollars (that is, your account is either Hong Kong dollars or US dollars). And if the investment company settles in RMB, then there is no doubt that the fake investment company. Because since mainland companies are not eligible to set up investment companies, why are investment companies settled in RMB?

5. On the quality of Hong Kong investment companies. Therefore, legal investment companies in Hong Kong can generally be trusted, but not all investment companies have excellent transaction quality. Because spot gold transactions are generally online, it is understandable that there is a network failure or technical problem of the investment company, and when these problems occur by chance, you can call the Hong Kong company's dedicated transaction phone to solve orders, close positions, etc. All operational issues. However, some Hong Kong investment companies (especially fake investment companies in the Mainland) often experience network problems such as inability to close transactions and offline. And if these problems occur frequently, it may affect your trading. Therefore, I suggest that you do not covet an investment company whose commissions are tens of dollars cheaper but use a poor quality investment company to affect the transaction.

6. Regarding the deposit and withdrawal of Hong Kong investment companies. If you have selected a Hong Kong investment company, then after you sign an account opening agreement with them, it is time to deposit money into your trading account. At this time you have to pay attention that your funds must be remitted directly to Hong Kong companies, not the mainland agency companies. Agency companies are not eligible to collect money. Questions about exchange rate conversion are all settled by investment companies in Hong Kong. Generally, you can see your principal in your investment company account in about one or two working days after you transfer the money to the Hong Kong investment company. Withdrawal issues. If you want to withdraw money, you only need to fill in the required forms in accordance with the regulations of the Hong Kong company and fax it to the Hong Kong company in about one or two working days before receiving the money. Generally speaking, if the withdrawal is smooth, but you need to pay attention when the withdrawal becomes a waste of time.

7, about some deceiving tricks. Some mainlanders set up a company locally and then another company in Hong Kong. In this way, you feel similar to the above formal investment companies, but in general. Their headquarters are local, while their branch offices are in Hong Kong and do not have a gold or silver trading floor number. So you need to be vigilant when you meet them and say that their investment company is their own, but the company is based in Hong Kong and also has a company in Hong Kong.

8. Every next real order has a transaction code. This code is unique. You can go directly to the official website of the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Trade Fair (Baidu Search) to check. The detailed transaction records corresponding to the code can be found. If you ca nt find it, say that your funds have not entered the international gold market, be careful at this time

In short, the authenticity of the trading investment company directly affects the fundamental interests of investors. I hope that the majority of golden friends can conduct certification inspections to avoid unnecessary losses and jointly resist fraud in the gold field. Finally, I wish the majority of investors to trade Get considerable benefits!
