Funds

A fund is a special purpose vehicle that raises money from a number of investors to invest it as per its predetermined policy for the collective benefit of the investors. The transparency of activities, being highly regulated and obliged to compute regularly the Net Asset Value (NAV) that must be published to the public are the comparative advantages over registering a private investment company.
