Answer:

The provided statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

Compounding frequency is the frequency of the interest that is paid in a year.

Higher compounding frequency will return a higher future value along with the constant investment amount and time. Therefore for investment drives higher compounding frequency is favored.

A higher compounding frequency for an investment with the same original investment and time horizon would return additional interest and profit when compared to an investment with a lower compounding frequency.

Thus, the provided statement is TRUE.
