Take control of your money

Nordea and Inderes Femme have joined forces to create the Investor Collective – a relaxed way to learn the essentials of investing. In the first term, we covered the essentials of investing and portfolio construction. In the second term, you’ll learn to analyse individual stocks: where to find information, what key figures you should be looking at and how to make an investment decision.

We also publish podcast episodes linked to the lecture topics, which you can listen to on Spotify and YouTube.

Osakepoiminta – kun haluat itse päättää sijoituskohteistasi | Femme x Nordea Salkunhaltijat 06

Haluatko itse päättää sijoituskohteistasi? Tässä Femmen ja Nordean yhteistyöjaksossa Tiina Raininko Nordealta ja Kaisa Vanha-Perttula Inderesiltä sukeltavat syvemmälle yhteen kiehtovimmista sijoitustavoista: osakepoimintaan. Osakkeet vai rahastot - vai ehkä molemmat? Miksi itse valitut osakkeet voivat olla just sun juttu ja milloin taas rahastot ja ETF:t helpottavat elämää? Jaksossa puhutaan myös ylituoton tavoittelusta, erilaisista (osake)deittailijoista ja siitä, miksi tunteet saa olla mukana, mutta järjen kannattaa ohjata osto- ja myyntinappia painaessa.

First date with a company – what does it actually do?

Before getting carried away by a soaring share price, take a closer look at the company behind the stock. In this episode, we break down what the company actually does, who its customers are, where its money comes from and what sets it apart from the competition. If you can explain the company’s business to a friend in plain language by the end of the episode, you’re already well on your way.

A great story or a great business? How to spot a quality company

A compelling story can make any company look like a winning investment, but what’s really happening beneath the surface? In this episode, we explore whether a company has a credible strategy, a growing market and competitive advantages that can weather the headwinds. Our aim is to help you tell the difference between a captivating story and a genuinely high-quality business.

A good company, but at what price?

Even a great company can be a poor investment if the price is too high. In this episode, we dive into valuation and the most common key figures. You’ll learn how to compare a company not only with its peers, but also with its historical valuation. We’ll also find out when a good company is a good buying opportunity and when expectations are already too high.

Buy now or keep it on your watchlist?

Now your shopping list is ready, but is this a stock worth buying, or one to keep on your watchlist a little longer? In this final episode, we’ll bring everything together: the business, the quality, the market, the figures and the valuation. We’ll weigh opportunities and risks and discuss when it makes sense to buy, when it’s better to wait and when it’s time to sell.

Under the mattress or in the markets?

Getting started with investing can feel daunting. Many people wait for the perfect moment in the markets or try to save up larger sums even though investing is something you learn by doing, not by waiting. When you start out and invest small amounts, the cost of learning is usually smaller too. 

So don’t stash your money under the mattress. Put it to work, even if you’re starting with modest sums. Even a small amount makes investing feel much more real.

Jumble up your portfolio – on purpose!

Does successful investing sound like a matter of luck? In the long run, though, it’s not about chance. It’s a result of the growth in human productivity and continuous business development – despite the crises we encounter along the way. By investing, you become part of that progress and can benefit from it financially as well!

Market ups and downs can’t be avoided entirely, but a well-diversified portfolio helps you weather downturns and uncertainty.

Confessions of an investor

Investing isn’t just about success stories. It also comes with excitement, uncertainty and mistakes. Emotions influence our decisions more than we’d like to admit, and every investor stumbles at some point. The biggest difference between investors or investment portfolios lies in whether you’re able to recognise your mistakes and learn from them.

When you understand yourself as an investor, you make better decisions – even when the markets are in turmoil.

Your investment style isn’t a personality test

Are you a stock picker or an index investor? When you invest in stocks, you buy a piece of a company. With index funds, you can diversify your investments with very little effort. Investing isn’t an either-or choice. In fact, for most people, a combination of different approaches works best. You can think of your investment style like your personal style and wardrobe: it evolves over time. Did you know that many beginners trade too much at the start, even though when it comes to investing, less is often more?

With clear guidance, you can get started and avoid the most common beginner pitfalls.

Spotted: an investor without a plan

An investment plan is an investor’s most important tool. It shouldn’t be drafted in the middle of market swings, but something you should have before you make your very first investment. Think about where you are in life, what your goals are and how investing fits in your budget.

With a good plan, it’s easier to stay calm and invest with a long-term focus. Diversification and regular monthly investing can also help make investing less stressful.
