Purpose

EMPOWERING INDIVIDUAL INVESTORS

The principle behind a Share Club is the sharing of investment skills and knowledge. Each individual member makes his/her own investing decisions for portfolio management. This is not an investment club. We discuss all aspects of personal financial planning such as savings/investing, taxation, insurance, estate planning, etc.

Our club relies on building of trust among members to share information and receive information for the benefit of all.

The desired atmosphere in a Club should be such that:

• There is an opportunity to learn and acquire skills
• There is a strong element of member trust
• The interaction with other members is open
• A sharing/learning environment exists
• There is a commitment to participate and attend meetings regularly
