Abstract

The purpose of this study is (1) to point out the complexities and make clear the importance of a comparatively new investing mechanism, the periodic-payment investment plan; (2) to survey in detail the structure, operation, and results of a selected plan of this type, the Financial Security Fund Systematic Investment Plan; (3) to compare, whenever it seems pertinent to do so, features of this selected plan with those of similar periodic payment programs; and (4) to arrive at some conclusions as to the soundness and desirability of such investment media.
