SINGAPORE, Nov. 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- GTN, a global fintech redefining investing and trading for all, has been selected as a strategic partner by Hugosave®, Singapore's leading wealthcare companion, to expand Hugosave's offerings with fractionalised investment portfolios. This collaboration marks a significant stride in making diversified global investment portfolio funds accessible to a broader audience, starting from as low as S$0.01.

The partnership leverages GTN's recently launched global fractionalisation engine, integrated via GTN Invest's API. This technology simplifies the investment process, allowing clients to invest in a wide range of global ETFs without the traditional barriers of high minimum investments and complex fee structures.

"GTN is delighted to have been selected by Hugosave as they expand their offering with GTN Invest, our digital wealth management platform," said Julien Le Noble, CEO of GTN Asia. "Their goal of democratising investing for everyone aligns perfectly with our vision to deliver innovative solutions that enable everyone to invest in anything at any time."

This innovative approach redefines the conventional ETF buying process, which typically involves higher investment thresholds and additional fees. Now, investors can invest more flexibly in ETFs, enabling better control over investment decisions.

"This partnership is a game-changer for our clients," said David Fergusson, CEO of Atlas Consolidated, Hugosave's parent company. "By leveraging GTN's expertise, we are empowering our clients to invest in a diversified range of global ETF funds with greater flexibility and control. This will undoubtedly play a transformative role in their savings journey, helping them achieve their long-term wealthcare objectives."

The collaboration brings to Hugosave's clients a choice of three tailored ETF portfolios – Cautious, Balanced, and Growth – each aligned with specific investment personalities. An innovative Investment Personality Quiz helps clients determine the most suitable portfolio, ranging from low-volatility options for cautious investors to higher-risk, higher-return portfolios for more adventurous investors. These portfolios encompass diverse asset classes: equity, fixed income, money market, REITs, and commodities.

Available today, 23 November 2023, these fractionalised investment portfolios will be managed within Hugosave's Trustbox®, offering a digitally secure and efficient way to handle investments. This feature underscores GTN's commitment to providing secure and accessible investment solutions to its partners and clients globally.
