A disciplined, personalized investment strategy.
Dollar-cost averaging through an automatic investing program offers investors an alternative approach, allowing them to enter the market gradually — and perhaps with less risk. It also enables investors to invest in the market without trying to ‘time’ their buys and sells, which is difficult for even the most seasoned investor.
- Helps take the fear and guesswork out of investing
- Provides a disciplined, systematic way to invest
- Helps spread your investment risk over time
- May lower your average share cost in the long term
