Equities offer a dynamic path to growing your wealth, with the potential for both dividends and capital appreciation. At Blueprint Financial Solutions, our investment advisers provide clients in Gloucestershire and across the UK with tailored advice and guidance on investing in stocks and shares, helping them navigate the risks and rewards of the stock market.

Investing in Equities

Investing in equities means buying stocks and shares in companies listed on the stock exchange. Historically this brings greater rewards than investing in bank accounts and bonds as you have the possibility of gaining not only a dividend - a proportion of the company's after-tax profits distributed to shareholders - but also a capital appreciation. If the price of the shares goes up after you buy them then – on paper - you have made a capital gain.

But with these increased rewards comes greater risk as the value of shares can go down as well as up, which means you risk losing your investment if the value of your shares falls.

THE VALUE OF INVESTMENTS AND THE INCOME THEY PRODUCE CAN FALL AS WELL AS RISE. YOU MAY GET BACK LESS THAN YOU INVESTED.

 

Investing in equities can be a powerful tool for wealth building, but it’s essential to have a clear strategy in place. Contact our team of experienced investment advisers to discuss your financial options.
