Saxo Bank has launched a new platform, SaxoInvestor, which allows investors to build long-term portfolios across stocks, bonds, mutual funds, exchange traded funds, and SaxoSelect portfolios.
According to Saxo Bank, the platform gives access to cash products solely and has a new feature called ‘investment themes’.
The themes cover several long-term investment trends such as robotics, electrical vehicles, environmental, social and governance, and cybersecurity,
SaxoInvestor is built on the same technology as the group’s other platforms, SaxoTraderGO and SaxoTraderPRO, but has a simple interface that caters for the needs of the typical investor.
The platform has initially been launched in Denmark with international roll-out planned for Q1 of next year.
SaxoInvestor will be an integral part of the Group’s white label and partner offering across markets as the platform is developed with a dedicated focus on flexibility and customisation, the bank revealed.
Kim Fournais, CEO and founder, commented: “The opportunities for investors have for too long been constrained by limited access to international stocks, high and opaque prices and outdated technology.”
“With SaxoInvestor, we make it much simpler to build a diversified portfolio across markets and offer high-quality inspiration on the major investment themes that shape the future of this world.”
Fournais added: “The investor segment is among the fastest growing. And by leveraging our state-of-the-art technology and access to global capital markets, we deliver a product perfectly tailored to the investor with a longer investment horizon. For this segment, it is paramount to not only diversify across markets and asset classes but to do so at low costs.”
