You would do well to do research yourself and then go to a broker with specific questions . Don't expect too much from a broker some of them are just kids in suits.
All the companies like new ireland ,eagle star ,quinn life etc give all the info on their websites re their funds.
You can see the type of fund,what its invested in ,charges,returns to date
You need to know what kind of investor you are
Do you want a capital guarantee and settle for a low return
Do you want to invest in china ,commodities etc with potentially high returns but more risk
When you know what kind of fund you want to invest in compare companies for the lowest charges
Do you want a tracker fund which just followes a market index like quinn direct funds or an actively managed fund like an eaglestar which will have higher charges and which should beat the market index but could also do worse the market index
