Happy 10th Birthday, EasyEquities! We're popping the champagne (responsibly, of course) to celebrate a decade of making investing accessible and empowering for over 2.2 million users.
It's been a wild ride, filled with innovation, growth, and a whole lot of "firsts" for the investment landscape.
10 Milestones That Shaped EasyEquities' Journey:
- From 1 to 13! We started with just 1 account type, but now we offer options for every goal, including TFSA, retirement annuities, and more.
- We smashed down borders! Today, you can invest in local and international markets, opening doors to exciting opportunities worldwide.
- Forget feeling lost, over 94,000 EasyEquities investors are already exploring the world of foreign shares!
- We believe in choice! With over 2,400 different investment instruments - from stocks and ETFs to crypto and property - you can build a portfolio that reflects your goals. (Fun fact: Sasol is the most popular local buy, while Tesla reigns supreme globally!)
- That's a lot of investing power. We've facilitated 58 million trades on our user-friendly platform.
- With R171 billion processed, we've also helped investors save R3 billion in fees. More money in your pocket, more for your investments!
- We launched EasyProtect (insurance) and EasyCredit to support your entire financial journey.
- The EasyEquities community has poured over R1.3 billion into Unit Trusts and a staggering R24 billion into ETFs! Additionally, over 40 EasyProperties have found new owners.
- Our savvy investors have invested a cool R5.8 billion in the Satrix Top 40 ETF. Tesla, however, remains the global champion with R649 million invested.
- EasyEquities cares! Since 2020, our community has donated R1.4 million to charities through our #DonateForGood function.
Here's to the Next 10!
We've grown together, and with every investment, we're building a future of financial freedom for millions. Stay tuned - the next 10 years promise to be even more exciting!
