You should definitely not base it on past performance. You should identify a fund (or funds) that match your risk/reward profile, investment term, age etc. and invest in this (these). For example if you have a long way to go to retirement then you should definitely consider investing in a high risk/reward profile, high equity content (up to 100%) fund. Of course even within this sort of category there are many different options - e.g. index tracking funds that track one or more indices, concentrated funds that invest in a specific number of individual companies etc. Basically that is how you should choose a suitable fund and not based on past performance. If you don't know what to do or don't understand the issues then (a) read up on the issues and (b) consider getting independent, professional advice.if i cant base my investment decision on past performance what wud u suggest i base it on?????
Can you invest in multiple pension funds and avail of the incentive and tax credit on each as long as the total amount is under €7.5K or are you restricted to a single pension?no im not foolish enuf to think i wud get the government topup twice i was actually thinkin of halving it 3750 each which goes to 5000 each and i thought that was a pretty good idea
