Open-end fund investment
Introduction
Fund is a popular trust investment tool and is initiated by fund management company or other founders. By issuing beneficiary certificates to investors, they collect the scattered funds from the public and entrust specialists with professional knowledge and investment experience to manage and operate the funds. The reputable financial institutions serve as the trustee or custodian of the raised funds. Fund operation consists of three major elements, namely, fund investor (also called beneficiary); fund manager, i.e., fund management company; fund custodian or trustee.
Subscription: investors purchase the funds by paying the unit face value of the funds and a small amount of fees during the fund raising period.
Purchase: after the fund is established, investors purchase the fund by paying the latest unit net asset value of the fund and a small amount of fees.
Redemption: investors sell their already held open-end fund units to the fund manager and redeem the capitals.
Main returns:
The bid-ask spread of funds fluctuates with the securities market, and the net value of fund units will change constantly, accordingly, the prices of fund purchase and redemption will rise and decline constantly. If investors can seize market opportunities to conduct open-end fund trading at a favorable time, they can benefit from the spread by selling at high price and buying at low price.

-- Cash dividend: cash distribution toward investors.
