The Legal Stuff
"Investment services" is a general term used to describe a whole range of activities related to investments in financial instruments. Typically, the most common forms of investment services are the following:
The provision of investment advice whereby investors are provided with personal recommendations on the investment products that would be suitable for them (also known as an advisory service); The purchase or sale of financial products on an execution-only basis (therefore without receiving investment advice); or The provision of portfolio management services (collective or discretionary).
When selecting investment services, one should always check that the provider is, in fact, licensed to provide investment services before entering into an agreement. Investment services should only be sought from licensed entities.
