They generally provide stable values and investment returns over short periods. The downside of this security is that defensive investments do not usually grow in capital value, and returns are generally lower than those of\u00a0growth investments\u00a0over the medium to long term.<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Cash.<\/b>\u00a0\u2018Cash investments\u2019 generally refers to investments in bank bills and similar securities that provide a stable, low-risk income in the form of regular interest payments. There is no minimum investment timeframe for this asset class.<\/li>\n<li><b>Fixed interest.<\/b>\u00a0These include term deposits, debentures, mortgages, and government and corporate bonds. Returns are usually in the form of regular interest payments for an agreed period of time. Fixed interest investments are generally appropriate if you have an investment timeframe of one to three years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>Growth investments<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>As well as income, growth investments aim to increase the value of the capital invested. While investment returns are likely to fluctuate over the short term as markets and economies change, growth investments have the potential to produce higher returns over the long term than defensive investments.<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Shares.\u00a0<\/b>A share represents part ownership of a company. Shares are generally bought and sold on a stock exchange. Returns usually include capital growth and income from dividends. You can choose to invest in Australian shares, international shares or a mix of both. The minimum suggested invested timeframe for shares is five to seven years.<\/li>\n<li><b>Property.<\/b>\u00a0You can invest in property directly (e.g. when you buy a house or commercial premises such as a shop) or indirectly (e.g. by purchasing units in a property trust listed on a stock exchange). This asset class includes residential, commercial, retail, hotel and industrial property. Property is usually considered a medium-term investment, with a timeframe of three to five years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"apply\">\n<h3>Apply for Portfolio Manager Certification Now!!<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Portfolio-Manager\">http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Portfolio-Manager<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/certified-portfolio-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Back to Tutorial<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Types of Investors Defensive investments Defensive investments aim to provide regular income.
