Check out our Regular Investor Plan. This is a great way for you to reduce the impact of market fluctuations by investing specific amounts into one or more funds on a regular basis. It's a simple plan (often referred to as 'dollar cost averaging') which can reduce the risks associated with making large one-off investments. Plus, once you've set it up you don't have to make single one-off investments.

When you invest in Managed Funds with RaboPlus the tax is automatically deducted from your account at the end of the tax year or during the year when you sell units.

In addition to this your Statements and Tax Certificates are generated dynamically and stored historically for your convenience. Most other banks give you the option to print off statements, but how many go as far as letting you print of your Tax Certificates as well? So when it's time to arrange your finances you can instantly print the copies you need.

interested to know whether the entry fees charged on managed funds are tax deductable?

Mike Heath:Thank you for your inquiry. Tax is a specialist area and RaboPlus does not provide tax advice. RaboPlus is aware some advisers consider that entry fees may be deductible, depending on the particular investor’s personal circumstances. For a definitive answer to your question you would need to obtain specialist tax advice.

Although the managed funds are easy to set up with Rabobank, they are also very luring. So far I have invested in 6 different funds through different companies, and all have constantly decreased. Other investments (not through Rabobank) have performed a lot better.

Hi Mike,have you managed to explain the intricacies of exit prices for the the cash fund?

Mike Heath: Hi Vicki, I can’t recall you having asked this question before, but if you did my apologies for having missed it. There are no exit prices for the Cash Advantage Fund i.e. the buy price and sell price are the same and reflect the same unit price. Does that answer your question?
