About us

Routes based on solid science

We map out investment routes with data, and a team of experts to help you reach your goals at your own pace and risk level.

We do our homework

Our approach is data-driven and algorithmic, so it can be tested objectively against historical data.

It also means we don't need the expensive traditional model of specialist teams analysing companies one by one. Combined with low-cost, index-tracking ETFs, that keeps investing with us affordable. And it isn't limited to South Africa: the same approach covers the US, the UK, Europe, Asia and elsewhere.

At your pace and your risk level

Four building blocks (value, quality, stability and momentum) shape every portfolio, and you can invest in them on their own too.

From them we build ranges for every risk preference: Core managed ETF portfolios and Enhanced managed share portfolios, including versions that comply with retirement fund (Regulation 28) and tax-free savings rules.
