Ongoing advice Print E-mail

Get ongoing advice from dedicated investment professionals. Why not use Seed’s investment professionals to give you independent advice on your portfolio and then give the ongoing management of your portfolio over to our investment team. Our highly skilled investment professionals will advise you on your portfolio. Your portfolio will then be managed by our investment team on an ongoing basis.

This service is for investors with an investable portfolio of at least R1.5m.

Our team comprises of an actuary, chartered accountant, and a CFA candidate. You will therefore have a team of highly skilled professionals that will give you independent advice on your portfolio.

Our advice is absolutely independent. Because we don’t earn commissions or initial fees on the investment products we don’t advise our clients to products that “pay” well. Instead we charge our clients an agreed fee of between 0.5% and 1% depending on the size of the portfolio. For larger portfolios we will agree a performance related fee if that is the client’s preference.

You will get a clear picture of your current state of affairs, where you need to be in 5 – 10 years time, and the how to get there. Our team of investment professionals will provide you with the following documents:

  • Your personalised Investment Strategy Document (ISD)

This document sets out your current asset allocation, what the likely outcomes of your portfolio are in the future, and what the probabilities are to be able to retire at various dates in the future. icon View example here (1.04 MB)
