Stocks
Also called equities, stocks symbolize
ownership in a company and offer an array of investing opportunities. A
historically volatile market; this greater risk is often associated with
greater long term rewards. Both (US) domestically and internationally exchanged
stocks are available.
Mutual Funds
A simple solution to portfolio
diversification, mutual funds offer the ability to own both domestic and
international equities, bonds, and money market positions in one transaction.
CCII offers access to a copious selection of mutual funds to meet the
investor's needs.
Fixed Income Securities
Fixed income securities are
investments with specified payment dates and amounts; primarily bonds. Risk
will vary, depending on the type, quality, and maturity of the security. Bonds
are most commonly purchased for income return but can also generate growth as
their prices move inversely to interest rates. Fixed income securities include
corporate debt securities, and US government (GSEs) and agencies'
securities.
Emerging Markets
Emerging markets are financial
markets in countries with developing economies. These markets are immature
compared to those of the world's major financial centres, but are becoming
increasingly sophisticated and integrated into international markets. They
provide potentially high returns but can be intensely volatile. CCII's
securities experience rooted in the Caribbean provides a basis for
extraordinary analysis of these emerging markets opportunities. |
