Your friend has $5,000 and asked for your recommendation about placing her money in a financial institution. based on what you learned in this module, what factors would you ask her about before making your recommendation? which type of financial institution and type of account might you suggest?

Explanation:

If my friend wants to invest her $5000 and asks recommendations from me, then the main question i ask from her would be how much risk she is ready to take. There are different investment opportunities depending upon the level of risk a person is willing to take. If my friend would like to go safe and doesn't need any risk in her investment, then i would recommend her to buy Treasury Bills for long term investment. There would be no risk involved. Secondly i may ask her to put her money in the saving account to enjoy interest money while keeping the principal amount safe. Thirdly i may ask her to invest in real estate for long term. Again the risk would be minimal. But if she wants to take risks, i would ask her to invest in the short term stocks and keep an eye on the movement of the stocks to get profit. Secondly i may ask her to invest in the foreign exchange market, in currencies or in commodities to get benefits on the rule of high risk high return.

So these are some recommendations for her on the basis of the risk she wants to take.
