(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 03/16/12 -- With Saint Patrick's Day just around the corner, BMO Financial Group reminds Canadians that they do not have to have the "luck of the Irish" to have successful investment portfolios if they follow some simple, practical advice.
A BMO study has found that 70 per cent of Canadians are concerned about the performance of their investments, given the current state of the economy and volatility of financial markets.
"Managing your investments during times of market volatility doesn't have to be stressful if you follow some basic guidelines," said Serge Pepin, Head of Investments, BMO Investments Inc. "It's important that your portfolio is well-diversified in order to manage risk and that you re-evaluate your investments periodically to make sure that they're on track to meet your short- and long-term goals. Take the time to sit down with a financial professional who can work with you to ensure that your investments are best suited for you and the market conditions."
To help manage risk, Mr. Pepin recommends investors consider investments such as BMO Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) Portfolios, which are mutual funds made up of ETFs. BMO offers four risk differentiated portfolios that give investors access to many of the benefits of ETFs through easy-to-use mutual fund classes. Investors have the option to choose a portfolio with a risk level that is suitable to them.
BMO's Serge Pepin offers the following investment portfolio management advice for investors to consider:
