Financial Review Smart Investor

Smart Investor Financial Review is an indispensable tool for active Australian investors who are seeking information and analysis about wealth creation and financial security. Written by a team of well-known financial experts, and utilising the resources of the country’s premier financial publishing group, it provides a vast range of investment ideas and opportunities unattainable anywhere else in the media.

The magazine was created from the stable of magazines formerly housing the successful Personal Investor and Shares magazines. It retains the columns and features already proven in the marketplace, while adding a host of new sections that enable investors to move forward with confidence into the 21st century.There continues to be a strong focus on equity investment, both the little-known small and mid-sized stocks striving to make their mark on corporate Australia, as well as the heavyweight blue-chip companies that form the backbone of most Australians’ DIY or superannuation portfolios.

The magazine is based around performance and offers readers unbiased analysis of all asset classes – from shares, managed funds and property investments all the way through to basic bank account products. It covers everything from small speculative issues to giant global issues. And it offers easy-to-understand guidance through complex superannuation and tax issues. There are also pages devoted to teaching people how to be better investors and to think strategically when allocating their savings.

Smart Investor’s overriding aim is to help readers choose investments with the appropriate risk/reward profile so that they maximise their wealth at all stages of their lives. When it comes to Australian investment there is only one magazine, brought to you by The Australian Financial Review.
