Inherited money: what is the best way to invest?

Inherited money and not sure how to invest it? Why shares are the best investment and what risk you can personally take.

Have you inherited or sold a property? What to do with the money? In view of the current interest rate environment, savings or call money accounts are by no means recommended. And in the medium to long term, inflation will erode the acquired assets – which is not what anyone wants and certainly not what a testator would want.

Inherited money – buying shares pays off

If you suddenly have a lot of cash at your disposal, you need to invest it wisely. This is the only way to preserve the value of your assets – and even better: you will generate asset growth and thus have additional income at your disposal.

So what is the best solution? Buy a property and invest the money? Invest in commodities or bonds? Compared with other asset classes, buying shares is the most worthwhile option:

Inherited money: investment strategies to grow your wealth

So it makes sense to buy shares. The only question is: which ones and how many? And how much of your assets should you invest in shares? To answer these questions, you need to think about an individual investment strategy.

Find out your investor type

The first step to answering these questions seriously is a sober analysis of your own needs and financial circumstances. How willing am I to take risks? What goals am I pursuing? How long is my investment horizon?

In this context, stock market experts speak of a 'risk profile' or investor profile. We can work with you to create your personal profile. Would you like to know which investment solution suits you best?

Inherited money: what to do with the taxes?

If you have inherited money, you should also consider the tax implications.

In most cantons, spouses and direct descendants are exempt from inheritance tax. There are also tax-free allowances.
