Key facts examiners test from this unit
Investment = sacrificing present consumption for future return; saving = income − expenditure; two elements = TIME + RISK; four attributes = return, safety (principal back), liquidity, risk (ILLIQUIDITY is the textbook's Check Your Progress fake); more risk → normally more return.
Synonyms: money/portfolio/wealth management — NOT underwriting; fees 0.35–2% on a sliding (volume-discount) scale.
Five steps: goals → analysis (fundamental + technical) → construction → revision → evaluation ('portfolio appraisal').
