  • EasyEquities, one of SA's biggest online share-buying platforms, has set its sights on disrupting the traditional life insurance sector, with plans in the next 18 months to launch a new product aimed at its young customer base.Charles Savage, CEO of JSE-listed Purple Group, which owns 70% of EasyEquities, said the group realised there was a gap in the market after its annual customer survey found most of its subscribers were underinsured.
  • mohammed_ab on 13 Feb 21
     
    I believe that this is a smart move from EasyEquities. The majority of brokers and investment platforms don't really care about the performance of their customers as long as those customers are making transactions. Offering an insurance product to its young customer base will increase its customer loyalty along with a new revenue stream.

  • One digital financial services provider, EasyEquities, is offering super-cheap prices in the hope of reeling in first-time and younger investors. The company charges 64c for R100 invested. “You won’t find cheaper,” its website claims boldly. In South Africa, that is most certainly true. EasyEquities also requires no minimum investment amount and there are no monthly account fees.

EasyEquities Investech Investment platform Trading South Africa

shared by mohammed_ab on 13 Feb 21 - No Cached
  • Our goal is to democratise all things investment. We’re approaching our break-even point as a business and we’ve achieved some significant milestones. The first is that we’ve built a valuable brand that is highly trusted and is engaging a new audience in investing – one that is demographically representative of the South African opportunity. Everyone is included, from a 12-year-ols running their own stock portfolios to a 94-year-old previously disadvantaged South African who felt they would never participate in owning shares in this country. It’s been an incredibly rewarding journey.
  • mohammed_ab on 13 Feb 21
     
    I really like the fact that EasyEquities is facilitating and allowing the access to financial markets to different age groups going as low as 12 years old. I once tried online trading, and I can understand the difficulties that people face to find reliable platforms in which you can trade foreign financial instruments.
