Feeder Fund

Feeder Fund - A feeder fund is a fund where an investor invests only through another fund, which is known as a master fund. The shares are sold to any investor through the feeder fund, but are only invested back through the master fund. These funds conduct the majority of their investing through another fund. Sometimes onshore feeder funds will be happy to invest in offshore master funds, as this foreign master fund provides additional tax advantages for many domestic investors. This is a great way to invest and get a great yield on your return if the master fund is doing well. Financial Advisor - A financial advisor is a person or an organization that is employed by a mutual fund or individual to manage the assets and provide investment advice.
