Fred Deegbe said the mutual fund is to empower Christians in their financial dealings.It is also to help Christians add more value to their monies and to inculcate in them the idea of investments as well as provide capital for business.Asked how different the Fund will be from existing mutual funds, Rev Deegbe said the choice of investment will be informed by the deep rooted Christian values.“Because it is a Christian Community Fund it will be more selective in the kind of funds we would invest in,” he said.
