A mutual fund is an investment fund that gathers funds from various investors and invests them in a diversified portfolio of assets such as stocks, bonds, commodities, or other investment instruments. Investors are issued shares of the fund, which represent their share of the total assets of the fund. Mutual funds are managed by professional managers who decide on the investment strategy and selection of assets. There are different types of mutual funds, including open-end and closed-end funds, which differ in terms of trading methods and liquidity. Mutual funds provide investors with the opportunity to achieve diversification and professional management of their investments.

NAV (Net Asset Value) is the value of a fund's or company's assets after deducting liabilities. In the case of investment funds, NAV represents the total value of all the fund's investments, including stocks, bonds, and other assets, minus all the fund's debts and obligations. NAV is typically calculated at the end of each trading day and shared with investors as a reference point for the value of their investments. For mutual funds, NAV is often used to determine the price of a fund share.

NOI (Net Operating Income) is a metric that measures the net operating income of a property or investment portfolio before accounting for interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It is calculated as the difference between the total income generated by the property (e.g., rent) and the operating expenses (e.g., maintenance, management). NOI provides an overview of the profitability and efficiency of operating the property and is an important indicator when evaluating its investment performance.

Ongoing fees are costs that are regularly charged for the management and maintenance of an investment fund or portfolio. These fees may include management fees, advisory fees, administration costs, and other services related to investment activities. Ongoing fees are typically expressed as a percentage of the value of the assets under management and may be charged on an annual or monthly basis. These fees affect the net return on investment, and it is important to take them into account when evaluating the costs and benefits of investing.

An open-end mutual fund is a type of investment fund that allows investors to buy and sell shares essentially at any time. This type of fund does not limit the number of shares that can be issued, and its price is regularly updated based on the fund's asset value, usually at the end of the trading day. Open-end mutual funds provide investors with flexibility, liquidity, and access to a diversified portfolio of various investments. They are managed by professional fund managers who are responsible for the investment strategy and asset selection.
