INVESTMENT TRAINING IS VITAL

We all need training to help better manage our finances and investments and this point was surely driven home to us following the wholesale destruction of capital during the global banking crisis of 2008. All investors suffer in a downturn, but some suffer more than others. Downturns bring volatility and uncertainty and can impact your confidence, judgement and desire to invest in a certain asset class.

Bull markets do the opposite and bring over confidence, trapping you into overlooking important fundamental information and risks. To consistently maintain and grow your wealth, you need a strategy that removes emotion, can be managed in a busy life and takes account of volatility.


WHY DID IRISH INVESTORS SUFFER MORE THAN MOST DURING THE GLOBAL CREDIT CRISIS?

  • We had an over-dependence on property investing
  • Few had an understanding of how to value an asset
  • Many had made an inappropriate use of bank debt
  • Others were unnecessarily reliant on the Irish equity market
  • And many did not understand the risk of having high exposure to a particular sector, in this case the financial sector.

Seminar

A number of well known and respected personal finance commentators have attended our seminar in the past and here is what they have said!

"If you do one thing as an investor this year - and that even includes anyone contributing to a company pension scheme - you should learn more by taking Gillen Markets one-day, intensive investment seminar. Not only will you finally learn how to properly value every share before you buy it, and discover different, risk averse strategies, but you will also come away with a better understanding of the buy, sell and hold signals that the markets produce. This is a serious days' work for anyone fed up with roller-coaster investing."  View more GillenMarkets testmonials
