From the Experts: Emma Kirk on Global Investing | Magellan Financial Group

We've been on a round the world trip the last few weeks, talking about why investing beyond Australia's borders is a really good idea. Before we boarded the plane home, Alec and Bryce thought it would be good to hear from an expert. So we gave Emma Kirk from Magellan a call, and she agreed to come on the show and talk about how she started investing. Emma is a Key Account Manager - Listed Funds, for Magellan, an Australian fund manager with just shy of $100 billion in assets under management. With over 25 years experience in the financial services industry, Emma has worked at AMP, BT Financial Group and ANZ before Magellan. She talks about why it's a good idea to have a global focus as an investor, and what factors beginner investors should be considering, and then serves up the best analogy of the differences between LITs, LICs, Active ETFs and unlisted funds, with the use of a never-ending Tim Tam packet.Pre order the book on Booktopia or Amazon now. If you want to let Alec or Bryce know what you think of an episode, contact them here.  Some of our favourite resources and offers to help you during your journey:$50-$200 OFF some amazing investing courses by our friend-of-the-show, OwenTrack your investment portfolio with Sharesight.Get a free stock when you sign-up to Stake, using the code EQUITYMATESGet exclusive access to our favourite data and insights platform, TIKRTake the emotion out of investing in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold and Silver with micro-investing app, Bamboo.
