A lump sum investment is when you have a sum of money to invest over a specified period of time, usually €10,000 +, over a period of 5 years or more.
When deciding to invest it is a good idea to take some time to reflect on the following:
A = what access do you need to the capital?
R = what level of risk is acceptable.
T = tax efficient is important?
I = do you need an income from the investment.
C = do you need a guarantee on return on capital
Having answered those questions the next step is to decide on the asset allocation to match.
