Smart Ways to Save & Invest for Beginners

Saving keeps your money safe, while investing makes it grow over time. The real challenge, however, lies in knowing which one works to your advantage in achieving your goals and within what time frame.

• The best way to manage short-term goals, like a vacation or buying a gadget, is through safe and liquid options like bank savings or recurring deposits.
• Medium-term goals — like purchasing a car or funding education — fit well with balanced mutual funds that combine safety and growth.
• While long-term goals involve retirement or wealth creation, these types of goals significantly benefit from index funds or retirement accounts, where compounding can work in your favour.
