PrecisionIR Teams With Folio Investing in First Relationship With a Brokerage Firm
MCLEAN, Va., March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Folio Investing, the innovative online brokerage, and PrecisionIR, a leading investor relations firm, today announced the first-ever alliance directly linking a brokerage service with the PrecisionIR platform.
"Folio Investing is the most powerful platform we have seen for individual investors to build and manage their own diversified portfolios using individual company stocks. No one else offers the combination of truly flat-fee pricing, fractional-share trading of high-priced stocks, and one-click buy and sell for any number of stocks at the same time," said Chris Fetty, vice president of PrecisionIR. "Folio Investing offers an ideal solution to markedly improve the way our users invest for their financial future."
As a result of the alliance, investors researching public companies on the PrecisionIR Web site will now have an easy and direct way to link to Folio Investing's online brokerage platform. With a few clicks, they can open an account and enter an order to purchase an exact dollar amount in stock of the company or companies they are researching. PrecisionIR currently has 600,000 regular users of its Web-based stock research services. Links to Folio Investing also will appear in the 2 million e-mail alerts which PrecisionIR distributes monthly to investors. Under the terms of the deal, PrecisionIR will receive referral fees for investors it refers to -- and who open accounts with -- Folio Investing.
"We are proud and excited that Folio Investing is the first and only brokerage service selected to facilitate buy and sell transactions for the investors who use PrecisionIR's outstanding research tools," said Owen Bowers, vice president of business development for Folio Investing. "We believe that our unique and powerful portfolio management system and flat-fee pricing offer a major step forward for this select group of investors."
