Knowing what to invest in and how to invest in it, can get confusing. Not only are there now more options than ever, the terms used to describe them are full of acronyms and jargon.

But don’t be disheartened. These terms are simpler than you might think. In this episode we explain 4 common terms you’ll hear beyond single stock investing; ETFs, Indexes, Mutual Funds and LICs.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know what each of these terms mean and the key differences between them.
