Published February 17, 2021, 11:30 AM When you invest in the stock market, perhaps one of the worst things that could happen is when the economy suddenly plummets. And no thanks to COVID-19, this actually did take a turn for the worse when the world went to an abrupt stop last year. Many industries were affected, especially the business and finance sector. While some companies were quick to adapt and expand like those in healthcare and technology, many continue to struggle to pick themselves up and recover from the pandemic year. In times like this, investors are looking for additional options to ensure their financial planning is not affected, as options in the local financial market are limited. While there are many ways to access global markets such as direct stocks or through mutual funds, a key important step is to first consult a professional advisor in order to avoid common pitfalls that may derail their plans.
