Valletta Fund Management (VFM), a member of the BOV Group, is producing an inform-ative and educational programme on RTK Radio titled Faddal b’Suċċess.

This programme, aired on the last Tuesday of the month between 5:15pm and 6pm, aims to provide the general public with information related to investments.

Through this programme, VFM will help current and prospective investors understand the basics of investments. Listeners are also encouraged to participate through live calls in order to seek further ­information or clarifications on any aspect of the topic of discussion during the programme.

A total of eight sessions will run until the end of June 2015. The subjects to be discussed will include topics such as ‘The benefits of monthly investing’, ‘Market factors that influence your investments’, ‘How political and economic news may impact your investments’, ‘The investment process when selecting bonds and shares in a Fund’ and ‘How Funds are ­actually priced’.

Since its inception in 1995, VFM has always been committed to increasing financial literacy and has played an important role in providing financial consumer education initiatives such as presentations, business break-fasts and market report updates on both the local and inter-national ­markets which are made available on the company’s website, among others.

The radio programme is one of the initiatives being undertaken by VFM as part of its corporate social responsibility, where it strives to help educate both the present generation as well as the next in financial matters and to provide the general public with the necessary knowledge on investments.

This enables the public to understand the benefits and risks of investment products.
