My wife and I have been keeping an savings account with a 6% yearly rentability (I don´t know if this is the correct term). We're lookng at options like that, because there are some banks that offer better returns.
Some extra cash I've made this year, I have put in mutual fund accounts to see how they do and some are not that bad, but the high fees kind of put me off of investing more. I mean, it's sort of OK too see they charged me 5 soles in a month but I'm pretty sure I'm not ready to see a charge for 50, you know.
I have never heard of Real State Funds; I'll check it out.
I'll also make inquiries tomorrow on buying stock or EITF's; from what I could see on soe websites, you end up paying 1.25 per trade in commisions (there were like 7) and taxes. I googled stocks Perú investing and got some info, not that much. A few years ago I heard that you had to have like 25 thousand dollars to invest in stocks, but in the news I have seen that now you can get in with less.
The main problem in Perú is that investing, from mutual funds to stocks, is not a common thing. It's become a thing recently but people are wary of such things because of our history. Maybe that's why the fees are so high. That and just plain greed.
Thanks for the reply. Obrigado.
