I am baffled with this your financial advice, this kind of advice na for Ghanians, not for smart thinking Nigerians... investmentvirus: As an Investment Analyst and Fund Manager with over 20 years experience. With over 10 years experience in the Real Estate Industry. grin
Keep 70% of your money and Buy Dangote Refinery Shares once it comes out in September (Stocks) This is HUGEEEEEEEEEE. This Shares will re-design ones destiny. Make sure u have your CSCS and Clearing House Number, a stock broking firm can help u with that. So immediately Dangote Refinery IPO comes out, u invest as much as u can. You will get dividends in dollars. This is going to be the best decision u will ever make in ur life.
For Equity, this is High-Risk, High-Reward. There will be sweet months, there will be bad months. This the best time to invest in Equity fund, now that there is a major dip. Put 30% into Stanbic IMAAN FUND or Zedcrest Equity Fund. (Zedcrest Annual Profit is Massive) U can buy both. Then keep topping up every week or every month and watch ur money grow. This should be a long term investment. Watch your money compound over the years. People will be wondering if u did jazz (Thats if u can keep for 8 years at least) This will be the second best decision u will ever make ever. Sweet for Retirement Plan. tongue grin smiley wink shocked cool
Later, If u have loose change, invest it in Money Mutual Fund.
Come back and thank me later.
Cheers to a sweet retirement plan. |

 uwaifou: MESSAGE FOR STL TEAM
Currently, the invested capital and the accrued interest appear to be combined, making it difficult to distinguish between the original amount invested and the returns earned. For transparency and easier portfolio tracking, I recommend displaying the principal (capital invested) and the accrued interest/returns as separate figures, along with the total portfolio value as it is obtained in other investment sectors.
This enhancement would help investors better monitor the performance of their investments and improve the overall user experience.
I wish this is considered. I look forward to seeing continued improvements to the platform (app). |

Coupons for FGN Savings Bond that is now taking our govt days/weeks to pay investors.. FGN Savings Bond has lost its usefulness to invesors and the economy. sharone21: Even without removing WHT tax from Customers funds, I doubt if many of us on Mutual funds thread ( also doing Fixed deposits)will be too excited about the rates here.

Yeah, Stanbic rate on mmf is a complete shit, in about 3 months time, it is going to be one year since stanbic had been battling around 15%+ on their mmf rate, now imagine you have over 50m+ naira with them, earning 15%+ almost a year, then calculate having same amount with other fund managers with better rates of over 17+, the differences are gonna make you cry as if someone poured hot water on you... Stanbic swift withdrawal process at the moment is exactly how things are supposed to work out whenever you need your money, but because our system is so messed up with inefficiency, we often see such normal processes as God working miracles and wonders. With other fund managers with better interest rates, but slower withdrawing process, just try to always initiate your fund withdrawing process days/weeks before you gonna urgently need your money... UncleJudax: 15.13% today. Crazy work. |
Investment › Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 8:54am On Jul 07 |
Lol... It is better to have a good and competitive rate, with few hours/days delay whenever you want to withdraw your money, than this low rate stanbic is giving with instant withdrawal. Nakedman: Right. They have made withdrawal instant. One of the reason i am still sticking around them despite their bad rate. |
Investment › Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 10:18am On Jul 03 |
Stanbic had sent mails multiple times informing customers they will no longer accept this method of paying money into any of your investment platforms with them, you can only deposit money with them through your wallet, they won't treat or accept any funds transfer to them through any other means.. You could get more informations about their new method of depositing money into your mutual fund account, I abandoned stanbic long ago due to their poor rates on mutual fund. Chidimercy: Please I credited my Stanbic IBTC mutual fund since yesterday being 1st early in the morning and uphill now its yet to reflected. I used my personalised account for this transaction. Please what could be the cause and how do I resolve this? Already sent them an email and I am yet to get a response. |
Investment › Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 7:20pm On Jul 02 |
The funniest part is that these fund managers frequently upgrade their apps or online services, and after their upgrades, the whole service becomes more unreliable and ineffective, I begin to wonder what their IT experts are frequently upgrading. UncleJudax: Stanbic really need to work on BlueNest. The authentication is unreliable, especially on the 1st of every other month (payment day) |
Investment › Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 7:17pm On Jun 30 |
The first priority of every fund manager is to make enough profits for themselves, and they'd break so many rules to achieve their aims. investmentvirus: Since there has been losses, why cant the Fund Managers (for equity) sell the shares they bought earlier so as to preserve our capital/profits.
Cos it is so foolish for them not to.
I smell a foul play here. (stealing our funds) claiming its the stock market.
They intentionally keep withdrawing our funds, and claim they registered losses.
They claim to be professional fund managers with many years of experience. Will i call them foolish or fraudsters? |
Investment › Re: Mutual Funds by AncestralPowers: 9:57am On Jun 28 |
Well said, many people are underestimating the power of long term MMF investment, if you have huge funds in money market fund, with patience and monthly or quarterly compounding, you are definitely going to do well as the best performing stocks/equities out there... Neurotika: I think this applies to most investments in general. If you want significant returns, the capital too has to be huge. The relationship between risk and return is well known, but atimes is oversimplified. You could have high risk and decent returns…or none at all. And when you factor in the time wasted, the net of upsides and downsides may not outperform steady returns of fixed incomes that much. However, I quite agree you need a good base to get something out of MMF. Although it doesn’t have to be anywhere close to your stated amount.
At the end of the day “rich” is a relative term…and it’s personal to each individual. What matters is you get your math right and be disciplined at it. |

You are right, and Warren Buffett could as well be considered as one of the insiders or financial manipulators.. I have personally concluded you cannot be extremely wealthy and be 100% legit. Investing in stocks/equities are okay, but we have a limitation if you aren't an insider, because we can only accept whatever we are given in the name of dividends. Investment in stocks/equities always reminds me of Animal Farm by George Orwell. "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others". Allboiz: Warren Buffett, the most successful investor alive, disagrees entirely.
All the same, I agree there are manipulations here and there by institutional players. Mostly, retail investors take the hit. |

Good observation, that's why investors like Robert Kiyosaki don't invest in stocks and don't advise people to invest in stocks. According to Robert Kiyosaki, every stock market across the globe is a play ground for finanacial manipulators.. You might agree or disagree with Kiyosaki, but he has a valid point. Before the shares of any company is transparently disclosed to the general public, the main profits had already been shared amongst insiders themselves.... I always laugh when people are trying hard to hype upcoming Dangote shares... We are waiting sha Bluearrow: This dividend of a thing is just one thing that never interest me about stocks. How will someone have almost 35m worth of mtn shares & receive a dividend of around 600k once in a year? At the end of the day the dividend will still be deducted from the share & its unit price will drop after payment. When I see people screaming dividends online, I wonder if there is another one.
One influencer was shouting $0.5 dividend for one foreign stock on Facebook, I did my calculation & discovered a $10k worth of that stock will give less than $12 in dividend. I really don't understand what the excitement is about on dividends sha |

Investing in stocks and equity isn't a child's play at all, I subscribed to Stanbic equity funds and lost substantial amount within hours, patience is just the key though. I thank God for money market mutual fund, the stability and rest of mind in money market mutual fund is far above 50% in health value.. investmentvirus: Honestly i dont understand Stanbic Imaan & Equity again.
The last 30 days has been crazy with only 6% Profit, this is insane.
GT Equity too has been misbehaving. They will give u huge profit today, tomorrow they will collect the whole profit. Then start giving one chicken feed/peanuts as profit like N1,000 daily. |

Does stanbic compound gains from Imaan Fund monthly, quarterly or yearly? investmentvirus: Imaan Fund is high risk-high reward. stanbic fund managers are so experienced, if u leave ur money for 6 months, u wont record any loss. There are some sweet months (Kanayo) and we also have months with some losses (yakubu manage)
i use their bluenest portal online. I dont k now how to use their APP stanbic 3.0 (lol) u will open another account for it on their portal.
I do imaan, stanbic equity and GT Equity. so far, imaan has an impressive Year TIll Date gains. Imaan does stocks and Real Estate.
Last year it did 95% Profit. |

Please go for mutual fund for maximum returns.. Compounding your interest quarterly will do the magic, and a financial miracle by year-end, particularly when your invested fund is huge, far better than treasury bills. I so much like it when ladies are concerned about investment and returns on their money. omotola224: To be honest I have no problem with leaving the money for a year without touching it I als have my emergency funds set aside I am just trying to see if mmf will give me more returns on my investment at the end of the year or piggyvest/tbills will do better I am fine with the risk for tbills, piggyvest or even mutual funds Just trying to pick the best choice in terms on returns |

I asked same question many years ago, while trying to find the best investment for my money. Here is what you must know, both treasury bill and mutual funds are very okay, treasury bill is good for those with instant gratification mentality or with little patience to see their money grow... But mutual fund is far far better on a long term basis or when calculating yearly return on investment.. Mutual fund is a great way to accummulate wealth, if only you are the patient kind of person... omotola224: Good evening house Does mutual funds give a higher return yearly than tbills
Is the difference significant like what percentage of If there is anyone that does both Kindly help give an answer based on the previous years
Even if you don’t both and know the answer to this I will appreciate I have always done tbills or piggyvest safe lock But I want switch completely to mutual funds |

You're very correct 💯 I did dollar mutual fund for about 2 years as well, I regretted why I did it.. it is a stagnated investment, invest in Naira and get maximum returns on your funds, you can always convert naira to any foreign currency whenever you need it.. Dollar mutual fund na bad market, forget about that high rate you are seeing on dollar mutual fund. Don't mind bad speculations against Naira, or fear devaluation, investing in Naira is simply the best. Iamblessed8888: Slow growth. You’re better off converting that money to naira and converting back later on especially as there is no imminent threat of devaluation.
I made same mistake for years and it stunted my growth. YTD alone i’ve made more from my naira MMF that i did in 3 years or so with my dollar MMF.
Sometimes, you can try to tilt your message towards selling the best deal for your audience and not just the best product or best company to invest with. I guess that’s the premise of welzyj2 ‘s argument. Otherwise, you’re a solid and genuine fellow |
