FINTECH 2024: MoneyFarm Launches Platform as a Service in the UK Following Italy Success
Money farm has developed an investment experience, available as an app on both Android and iOS as well as a web application. It is designed to target a new generation of savers, helping them to feel more confident in their investment decisions. Moneyfarm has created a solution for M&G that provides the simplicity of a digital-first investing experience but doesn’t forget that real people sometimes want help from real people, so they have access to dedicated &me consultants.
Due to the massive increase in digital adoption, the launch of &me is a huge opportunity for Moneyfarm and M&G plc. Boring Money estimates that there are 6.5 million potential customers open to digital advice in the UK. It is also believed that the digital wealth industry only accounts for around three per cent of this as the incumbents have continued to dominate.
Moneyfarm can provide its B2B2C partners with bespoke solutions. It combines a technology platform, product wrappers, asset management capabilities, back office/operations and an engagement model.
It is tried and tested, being already embedded into the propositions of:
- Poste Italiane (Postefuturo Investimenti)
- Unicredit’s Buddybank (Steppy by Moneyfarm)
- Banca Sella (Sella Evolution powered by Moneyfarm)
