An investment share is a valuable registered security that confirms the owner’s right to a share of the mutual fund’s property. The share exists in a non-documentary form, that is, ownership of the share is based on an electronic entry in the register of share owners. Confirmation of share ownership is an extract from the register indicating the number of shares purchased and their value. The value of a mutual fund's assets may decline, thus the returns of the funds in certain periods may be negative.
It is important to understand that investing in mutual funds is a long-term investment of available funds. Therefore, if the profitability of a mutual fund decreases during a certain period, this is not a reason to sell the unit. Returns on mutual funds are calculated for the future.
The average return on mutual funds is 8-10% per annum with minimal risks. The cost of one share is calculated daily, based on the value of the mutual fund’s property.
By purchasing a share, an investor becomes the owner of investment shares. An upward change in the value of shares will mean the owner's potential opportunity to make a profit.
The owner of a share in an investment unit cannot receive interest or dividends from his investment. You can make a profit (loss) only when you sell your share. Profit is calculated based on the difference in the value of the share at the time of its purchase and sale.

Mutual funds can be open and closed.
Shares of open-end mutual funds can be redeemed at any time (on a business day) and their value is recalculated daily.
Units of closed-end mutual funds are accepted only within a certain period and can only be redeemed within specific date, according to the rules of a closed-end mutual investment fund. Closed-end mutual funds generally include funds that buy and sell real estate.

This percentage is constantly changing. When investing in mutual funds, it is best to create an investment package of shares from assets of varying degrees of risk and thereby diversify investments, for example, invest in shares of foreign funds, domestic companies and one of the closed-end real estate funds. Such an investment package will have average risks and at the same time have high income. In any case, when investing in a mutual investment fund, you must understand that the nearest normal income should be expected in, on average, 1 year in the case of investing in bonds, 3 years or more in the case of investing in stocks and 5 or more years in the case of investments in real estate shares.

So, let's briefly summarize the Sberbank mutual funds. If you want to get the maximum return on your investment, then you can invest in mutual funds. Investment funds in Sberbank are managed by the subsidiary company Sberbank Asset Management. The company website is https://www.sberbank-am.ru/. There you can, based on the dynamics of growth and decline in the value of shares, choose the most stable mutual fund in your opinion and invest in it. And then, at any necessary time, sell your shares at a time of high profitability and withdraw money from the fund. You should not judge the profitability of mutual funds too quickly - the trend of growth and decline in the value of a share occurs over a fairly long period of time. Therefore, we advise you not to touch your purchased shares at all for 1 year and simply follow the trend in changes in the value of the share. As for funds: they are open and closed. You can invest in open ones at any time and also withdraw them instantly. You can invest in a closed fund only at the moment the fund is opened - after collecting the required amount, the fund is closed and the management company uses its money to purchase real estate - after a certain time, the real estate is sold and you are paid the profit from the sale. The disadvantage of a closed-end fund is the ability to invest in it only for a limited period of time and the opportunity to receive income only after the sale of real estate by the management company.
