INVEST SMARTER

Investing just got faster and easier with online wealth management app Lu Global.

If humans are spending an ever-increasing amount of time on their smartphones in this digital age, they might as well be putting that screen time to good use and turning it into something with a tangible reward. To this end, there are tools like Lu Global, a new online wealth and investment management platform. The app provides a new generation of tech-savvy investors a simple and secure way of investing – right from their mobile phones.

A WINNING FORMULA

Flexibility is a key advantage. Besides offering 24/ 7 online access, the LU Global app also provides access to a global suite of specially curated open- and closedended funds from partners such as J.P. Morgan Asset Management, KKR and BlackRock - some of which were typically made available to institutional customers due to the large minimum investment sums and long lock in periods needed. With LU Global, investing in some of these fixedterm products can go as low as US$1 (S$1.40), with commitment periods as short as three months.

Without relationship managers and physical branches in operation, the operational cost savings are passed on to the customers through an attractive fee structure that currently promises zero subscription fees for all xed term products. All of these help lower the barriers of entry when investing with Lu Global. That said, the app is currently available to accredited investors in Singapore and investors in Asia.
