Inversión

Inversión, or “investment” in English, refers to the act of allocating resources, typically money, into a project, asset, or venture with the expectation of generating a return or profit over time. This process can occur in various contexts, including finance, business, and economics. In finance, investment can involve purchasing stocks, bonds, real estate, or other securities with the hope that their value will increase. In a broader economic context, investment can also refer to the expenditure on physical capital, such as machinery, buildings, and infrastructure, aimed at improving productivity and fostering economic growth. Investments are often associated with an element of risk, as the anticipated returns may not always materialize. The concept emphasizes the importance of asset growth and wealth generation through prudent resource allocation.
