I am trying to save for retirement, but I am worried in the legitimacy of investments.
My company offers only selected options for investments. Bonds, Money Markets, Equity (Large Cap/Mid Cap/Small Cap), Real Assets are some of the options.
Within these I have different Managers/Investment Vehicles.
I know that I can't invest in Bonds and Money Markets. So I have equity and real assets.
Here's what I wish to know:
1) Do all companies allow brokeragelinkage for 401k to self managed brokerage account?
2) In case (almost positively sure about this), my company doesn't allow the linkage, how should I go about this?
3) What criteria should I keep in mind while selecting the investments, mainly to keep it halal, for really assests and equity?
4) How can I check legitimacy of equity funds ( I don't know if they are public or private). I looked up the names but it just got me more confused as there are so many with the same name, there's no symbol associated with them so that I can look it up directly.
I have been through couple of articles, trying to understand how to approach this, but considering I don't know the market jargon well enough I understood bits and pieces.
If anyone can help me with some condensed knowledge to get me on the path or link me articles/posts thag can help me out.
Much appreciated.
P.S. I don't have Zoya Pro.
