As you progress in your investment journey, you may find that your assets are managed in different places. For example, you may have an emergency fund in a savings account at a bank or own physical property. In some cases, you may have an existing Tax Free Savings Account, Retirement Annuity or share portfolio that you had set up prior to having an EasyEquities account.
Sometimes having your assets live separately is unavoidable – you can’t exactly monitor the performance of your home’s value in an investment account. But there is something to be said about consolidating all of your investments into one place, because managing multiple investments separately can be a daunting task.
From tracking various asset classes to ensuring that each investment aligns with your overall financial goals, the challenge of maintaining a clear overview can be overwhelming.
In addition, being able to manage your various investments yourself gives you full control and transparency, and can save you a lot in fees.
