With an ETF saving plan, you can benefit from the cost averaging effect by paying a selected amount into an ETF of your choice on a monthly, fortnightly or weekly basis.
The amount and frequency of inpayments into ETF saving plans depends on your individual financial situation, your investment objectives and your risk profile. E-trading can be used to buy whole units between CHF 5 and CHF 200.
Markets can be volatile in the short term, leading to fluctuations in the value of an ETF portfolio. Long-term investments smooth out these fluctuations. They also exert a cost averaging effect, leading to a more favourable average price in the long term through regular investments.
The longer the investment horizon, the greater the chance of a return from an ETF saving plan.
