DEFINITION

Noun

A form of investment through purchasing units of a fund.

由来
  • 英语 “unit trust” 的意译。
  • 单位信托以信托的方式经营，是一种共同投资体。
  • 信托是指受托人替委托人管理财产的一种方式。由于单位信托是由多位投资者集成的，因此是一种共同投资体。
  • 不同种类的单位信托通常根据地域、行业及资产类别来区分。
  • 当单位价格超越了基金投资，入股单位信托者就能获得一些收益。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “单位信托” is a paraphrase of the English term “unit trust”.
  • A unit trust operates similarly to other trusts and is a form of shared investment.
  • A trust refers to an arrangement in which the trustee manages property or assets for a trustor. As a unit trust comprises multiple investors, it is a form of shared investment.
  • Unit trusts are usually differentiated by geographical location, industry, or asset class.
  • When a unit trust’s price exceeds the price paid for the fund, the stakeholders in the unit trust will receive returns on investment.
