However, many financial analysts believe that the exact opposite is happening.  Many investors are drawn into investing in European stocks because they think other countries in Europe offer the biggest investment opportunities for cheap.

“European stocks report high profits. Yes, it may seem unbelievable but equities that have attached value prices are favored among overseas investors, “ says Erwin Lasshofer, founder of Innovatis (Suisse) AG and CEO of Innovatis Gmbh Austria.

“We have senior asset managers who actively manage clients’ personalized portfolios, and expertly at that. They make sound financial decisions for clients and are skilled at identifying performing stocks that can withstand unexpected shifts in financial market trends. Our investment team has identified the equities that are resilient to what’s happening in Greece.,” says Erwin Lasshofer.

Also, be sure that your financial investment goals are in line with the firm’s business philosophy. Investing in European stocks is best for investors who have a long-term investment horizon.”
