Investment funds enable you to build up your assets and save for the long term, even with a limited investment. Find out more about this investment vehicle, which is accessible to everyone.

What is an investment fund?

An investment fund is an investment vehicle managed by professionals to whom you entrust your investment. It allows you to invest in a varied and diversified range of securities.

The main advantage? An investment fund gives you access to the market for even small amounts, allows you to diversify your assets as you see fit, and remains a "liquid" investment since you can withdraw your assets on a daily basis.

Mutual funds at Crédit Agricole next bank

True to our philosophy, our advisers are there to help you choose the solutions that suit you best. If you are interested, you have access to a diverse and varied range of investment funds, so you can make your choice according to your affinities and convictions.

Available from CHF 100 per month

Contrary to popular belief, investment funds are not just for wealthy investors. At Crédit Agricole next bank, you can invest as little as CHF 100 a month. There is no charge for opening a PEF (Plan Epargne en Fonds), after which it must be funded on a monthly basis.

The security of regular, diversified investment

While there is no such thing as 0 risk, investment funds are a very good way of diversifying. Made up of different investment vehicles (equities or bonds), they are based on different business sectors and geographical areas. What's more, the monthly investment solution smoothes out investment costs over the long term and therefore minimises market effects.
