International investing made easy webinar
Did you miss our recent webinar on international investing? No worries! We've got you covered with this quick read that summarises the key points discussed by InvestSMART's Mitchell Sneddon, Tom Wilson, and special guest Nick Cummings.
Why Go International?
Many Australian investors are heavily invested in the domestic market, often overlooking the potential of international equities. The webinar emphasised the importance of broadening your investment horizon to include global markets for a more diversified portfolio.
The Diversification Advantage
The team discussed how diversification is not just an investment buzzword but a critical risk mitigation strategy. By including international equities in your portfolio, you're spreading risk and tapping into growth opportunities that the Australian market might not offer.
Performance Matters
Investing internationally isn't just about risk mitigation; it's also about growth. The webinar highlighted their InvestSMART International Equities Portfolio and the International exposure in the InvestSMART Diversified portfolios.
ETFs: Your Gateway to International Equities
The discussion included recommendations on the best ETFs that offer an easy and cost-effective way to invest in international equities. ETFs can be a straightforward solution for those looking to diversify without the hassle of picking individual stocks.
Understanding Currency Risks
Currency risks are a real concern when investing internationally. The team explained how to approach this, discussing strategies to mitigate these risks and ensure your investments are not adversely affected.
Q&A Highlights
The webinar wrapped up with a live Q&A session, where the team answered questions from the audience. The questions added further insights into common concerns and misconceptions about international investing.
