Summary: | Mutual funds are open-end investment companies that use a pool of many investors’ money to buy shares of different investments.

This 4-page fact sheet was written by Lisa Leslie and Michael S. Gutter and published by the UF Department of Family Youth and Community Sciences, February 2013.
