What services does an investment company provide to an investor?

If you started an investment company, what kind of services would you provide for an investor?

If you're asking from the perspective of a potential investor, its up to you to investigate before you invest your hard-earned money.

If you're asking from the perspective of a potential venture capitalist or a person wanting to begin ,an investment company, the BEST way to discover the answer is to ask an investment banker. Before making your appointment, do some on-line research.

Make an appointment for lunch with an investment banker and ask a few questions:
[Not necessarily in this order]
A] Would you please do me a favor? THEN you wait for an answer.

When you get the "Yes" or "Sure, go ahead." or an answer in the affirmative THEN you preface or qualify your next Q from the perspective you are interested in finding the answer to.

EXAMPLE #1: "I'm interested in starting my own invest company. Would you please tell me everything you know about doing that?"
THEN you wait for an answer.

After finishing his/her answer, ask, "Is there anything else I should know?" THEN wait for the answer to that Q.

THEN ask the Qs which he/she didn't answer or explain to your understanding or satisfaction. THEN AFTER ASKING EACH Q, ALWAYS WAIT FOR AN ANSWER.

EXAMPLE #2: "I'm interested in investing my money with q very reputable firm which has extremely reasonable rates. Would you please tell me everything you know about your company - including what y9our fees are and all the fees you have - as well as what my requirements are to keep those fees at a minimum?"
THEN you wait for an answer.

After finishing his/her answer, ask, "Is there anything else I should know?" THEN wait for the answer to that Q.

THEN ask the Qs which he/she didn't answer or explain to your understanding or satisfaction. THEN AFTER ASKING EACH Q, ALWAYS WAIT FOR AN ANSWER.
