Investing: How to create an ETF portfolio that requires little work
One or two ETFs - and the portfolio is complete? That works. A guide in four steps, which ETFs make this work and which well-known index fund should be left out.
Nikolas Kreuz, head of Invios, a Hamburg-based asset management firm, disputes the myth that investments yielding high returns must be complicated.

To set up such a portfolio, investors should first determine their investment type by answering three questions: investment horizon, overall financial situation, and risk tolerance.
