In this world, where interest rates are ever decreasing, and inflation is ever increasing, it has become almost absolutely necessary to take some risk and invest in the stock market to be able to save enough for the retirement. However, investing directly in the stock market requires a lot of time and effort and above all, knowledge. And this is why it is probably too risky for small investors to invest directly in the stock market.

A much safer way to invest in the stock market is through mutual funds. Investing in mutual funds requires far less amount of effort on the part of the investor and is much less risky as these funds are managed by professionals. Further, as many investors pool in their money in each mutual fund, the chances of getting higher returns are much superior due to the ultimate size of the Investment.
