The Money Observer team take a look at their unique annual publication and how it’s evolved over the years, and explain how it can help you become a better investor.

In an investment funds universe with more than 3,500 options, where does a private investor begin? Our annual publication,Your Fund Choices, now in its fifth edition, is designed to help by highlighting the very best quality investment options, which we call Rated Funds. This year, we have identified 255 Rated Funds, investment trusts and ETFs. 

In this special podcast, Money Observer's editor Faith Glasgow and deputy editor Kyle Caldwell join production editor Gary Mcfarlane to explain how the team went about selecting Rated Funds and how to use the publication, as well as highlighting a few features, including a piece on how to generate a £10,000 annual income. Finally, Dzmitry Lipski of interactive investor discusses how ii's Super 60 shortlist was built from this year's line-up.
