Bringing you the financial products and services typically reserved for the 1%
Picking investments is hard. Wealthy investors use professionals to actively manage their money for them. We want to bring this to you.
Stay long term invested. We offer a line of credit, subject to assessment, to help cover any unexpected expenses (can't be used for investing purposes).
The 1% don't just invest in stocks and bonds. We aim to offer risk-managed portfolios of wider alternatives and private wealth features.
Please remember, investing should be viewed as longer term. Your capital is at risk - the value of investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you put in.
Deposit the funds you want to invest into your Sidekick wallet. Funds are held securely and are easily withdrawable at any time.
Select which portfolio you want to invest funds into. We offer a range of portfolios, actively managed by our in-house asset management team.
We will manage your portfolio on your behalf and keep you informed about all decisions and changes we make to the portfolio.
You can sell your investments at any time. Or (subject to affordability and credit checks), if you don’t want to dip into your long-term funds, we offer a portfolio line of credit (not to be used for investment purposes).
