FAQs
How many clients does findependent have?
findependent has more than 20,000 clients who use our investment app and actively invest money with us.
How does findependent earn money?
You pay us an asset management fee (0.20%), which together with the custody account fee amounts to 0.40% (or less, for investment sums of CHF 50,000 or more). The fee is calculated on the value of your investment solution at the end of each quarter and debited directly to your findependent account.
Is findependent safe?
Yes, because findependent is an account-holding securities firm authorised and supervised by the Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA. Your ETFs belong to you alone. Even in the unlikely event of findependent’s bankruptcy, they are fully protected as segregated assets. Your cash (1% of your investment solution) is covered by the depositor protection. Your money is as safe as with any bank.
How much interest does findependent pay?
The findependent account only holds 1% of your investment amount, we do not pay interest on this. In the past, the findependent investment solutions returned roughly between 3% and 6% per year (on average over a period of several years and net, i.e. after deduction of all costs).
What to do with the money in your savings account?
With a broad-based and favourable investment solution, you can benefit from long-term economic growth. This allows you to make more of your money and prevents the purchasing power of your savings from falling due to inflation. With a medium risk appetite, you can expect an average annual return of around 5% over a longer-term investment horizon.
How can I invest money without risk?
Nothing happens entirely without risk. Even a savings account harbours risks, in this case in the form of a loss of purchasing power due to inflation. However, if you invest in a broad-based investment solution, you can significantly reduce the fluctuation risks. With a long-term investment period, the probability of success can even rise towards 100%.
What is the best way to become wealthy?
Invest your money instead of letting it sit in your account. Use simple, favourable and transparent investment solutions that invest in a broad range of ETFs.
How much money does a normal person have in their Swiss bank account?
A sensible nest egg is 3 to 6 months’ wages, but this depends heavily on the individual situation (income level, total assets, liabilities, etc.).
What should I invest in?
Invest broadly and make sure that the instruments used are cost-effective. Investment solutions that rely on ETFs have proven their worth. The longer the investment horizon, the higher the proportion of equity ETFs can be. The shorter the investment horizon, the more different asset classes you should hold, such as bond ETFs, property ETFs and precious metal ETFs.
