Federated markets its mutual fund products to and through financial intermediaries under the Federated brand name. Many of Federated's funds are tailored to investors who seek financial advice through brokers and financial planners. Other funds are marketed through bank trust departments, investment advisors, insurance companies, corporations, governmental entities, and other institutional investors.
The Value of Professional Investment Guidance
The decisions you make when you invest your money have serious consequences for you and your family. You face a baffling array of choices. There are more than 8,000 mutual funds,* for example, and most of us don't have the resources, time, or knowledge to do the required research and analysis. There is, however, a solution.
Your investment professional can help you select the investments that best suit your individual financial goals by:
-
helping you determine and prioritize your objectives
-
evaluating your ability to accept investment risks
-
monitoring your investment mix as your goals and the markets change
Because they are highly diversified — spreading your dollars among many different securities — mutual funds offer a degree of risk reduction you may not get from individual securities. Still, there is no guarantee of a profit or protection against loss.
Federated designs its mutual funds for investment professionals and the needs of their customers. Using one of the largest wholesaling sales forces in the country, we sell our products through a network of nearly 5,400 clients.
If you are an individual inquiring about personal investing opportunities, we strongly encourage you to seek professional investment guidance in selecting the appropriate Federated funds to meet your financial goals. However, we invite you to visit our Web site often and become familiar with our funds and services.
