Frequently Asked Questions
  1. Does the federal government fund any NGOs? Which ones?

NGOs are organized on local, national and international levels to serve specific social or political purposes. Despite their independence from government, many NGOs receive significant funding from government entities.While an NGO can be funded entirely or in part by government funding, it may keep its non-governmental status by prohibiting government representatives from membership.
  2. What is the difference between redemption of shares and repurchase of shares?

    Sometimes, shares of stock offered by a company are not regular, market-driven common shares. Instead, they may be preferred shares, which are considered fixed income securities and are issued with a par value. When that par value is paid back to the purchaser of the preferred share, this is considered a redemption.

    It's always a good idea to keep some money set aside in a liquid form, but it's a double-edged sword, because the more liquid your money, the less it's earning. If you never have an emergency, then you can miss out on the chance for substantial earnings by keeping that money in a simple savings account.
