S2E37: Does Property Fit into Your Overall Investment Portfolio?

Isaac Ong

Having a roof over your head is one of the necessary aspects of life. However, nowadays, many people in Singapore view properties as an investment and often even prefer these over equities. So, the question arises: Should you focus on property investment?

In this week’s Money Wisdom episode, Chin Yu, our Lead of Advisory Team, discusses why people might prefer to invest in properties over equities and whether Providend considers it as an investment, using our investment framework.

You can refer to Chin Yu’s article on properties and their suitability in your overall investment portfolio here.

Meanwhile, stay tuned for our next episode, where we will be joined by a very special external guest!
