Regular Savings Plan(RSP) Introduction

1. What is an RSP

A Regular Savings Plan (RSP) is a low-threshold investment tool that allows you to automatically invest funds on a recurring schedule. This handy feature uses fractional shares trading to help lower the average amount you spend on investments and reduce the impact of volatility. The investment threshold for US stock RSP can be as low as USD 10, making it an effective way to build wealth over time.

1.1 Benefits of RSP

A Regular Savings Plan (RSP) has the following benefits.

1.1.1 Lower cost for buying quality stocks

Regular Savings Plan (RSP) has a relatively lower investment cost and supports a list of stocks, which are mostly NASDAQ-listed and may pay dividends regularly. The entry threshold for stock RSP is as low as USD 10 per month, so you can get started building a diversified investment portfolio with fractional shares trading.

1.1.2 Flexibility

RSP allows you to set investment amounts according to their own capabilities, depending on your personal situation. At the same time, it allows you to set investment periods, such as monthly, weekly, or daily payments. Through RSP, you can also adjust their investment amounts, pause or stop your investment plans at any time, and easily adjust their investment portfolios.

1.1.3 Dollar-cost averaging

The dollar-cost averaging method used in RSP can mitigate the impact of short-term market fluctuations on investments. By investing a fixed amount of money each month, more shares can be purchased when the stock price is low, and fewer shares can be purchased when the stock price is high. Over time, the average purchase price of the stock will be averaged out, which can help to reduce short-term risk.

1.1.4 Frees up your time

As RSP through periodic investment involves fixed amounts, investors do not need to constantly monitor market conditions after selecting their preferred stocks. This saves them time and effort in researching when to enter the market and accumulating enough funds.
