JAKARTA - Consistently in supporting financial literacy and inclusion, one of the subsidiaries of PT MNC Kapital Indonesia (BCAP) which is engaged in the mutual fund industry, MNC Asset Management (MNC AM) held its first mutual fund education webinar in 2022.
Around 50 participants from PT Agro Jabar employees participated in a webinar entitled "Smart Ways to Manage Income through Investment" organized by MNC Asset Management (MNC AM) in collaboration with Finansialku.com
In the webinar, material on basic financial management and the ins and outs of mutual fund investment was presented. Mutual funds are very suitable for novice investors, because apart from the affordable nominal investment, risk diversification from the lowest to the highest is also available.
"In addition to increasing MNC AM brand awareness in West Java, holding this webinar also supports financial literacy and financial inclusion, especially mutual funds," said Branch Manager MNC AM Bandung Branch Moh Razab Iryadana who was also a resource person in this webinar. Mutual funds around the MNC AM branch in Bandung are still relatively low, therefore this webinar is expected to add new investors from the Bandung area and its surroundings.
Meanwhile, Head of Advisory & Financial Planning at Finansialku.com Rista Zwestika also said that the level of financial literacy starts with being aware of personal financial management. From there, if all people are aware, the level of financial inclusion can be higher, such as the use of mutual fund investment products.
"Before using financial products, the first step we must take is to understand how to manage personal finances before allocating them to investment instruments," said Rista.
Rista added that one of the investment instruments suitable for beginners is money market mutual funds. Through money market mutual funds, investors can allocate funds for emergency or other short-term needs.
One example of a money market mutual fund is MNC Dana Lancar and MNC Dana Syariah Barokah which can be purchased starting from IDR 100,000 through the MotionFunds application which can be downloaded at the link bit.ly/MotionFunds or the website www.motionfunds.id
