Invest online: Easy, fast, from anywhere
 If
you like to do things on your own, online investing may be
for you. Investing online has revolutionized the investment
world, making it so much easier and more affordable for the
individual investor to take control and manage their own investments.
Carrying out your transactions is as simple as “point
& click” and you can do it anytime you like, from
your home or office or anywhere there’s a phone line.
And with wireless becoming more common, soon you won’t
even need that.
You’ve got access to a broad range of investments.
You can buy and sell stocks, mutual funds and options. And
you can trade on Canadian and U.S. exchanges and on the over-the-counter
markets. And you can have the same real-time quotes and market
information that are available to brokers.
In fact, the list of services and features that are available
to you through online trading is much too long to be included
here. Simply put, you’ll have everything you need to
effectively manage your investment portfolio.
But be aware that investing on line is a two-edged sword.
On the one hand, you have all the ease and convenience described
above. On the other hand, the enormous amount of information
you can access online and the thousands of available investments
can be overwhelming for many investors. As a result, many
people find they need professional help as much or more than
ever.
Which is why some online brokers, like RBC’s
Direct InvestingTM, the online trading service of RBC Investments,
offers the opportunity to invest through a licensed investment
representative.
RBC Direct Investing provides a direct investing solution for more
than 500,000 investors who manage all, or a portion of their
assets on their own. And they offer investors the choice of
investing online, through a touch-tone phone, or through a
licensed representative.
