ADVFN Creates Dedicated Platform as
Interest Surges for Trusts and Funds
- Allianz Global Investors, Liontrust, HC Charteris and more
featured on site's latest investor resource -
ADVFN (LSE:AFN) - a global stocks, shares and crypto information
website - has launched the ADVFN Funds Showcase for its extensive
private investor userbase.
The platform (https://www.fundsuk.advfn.com/) collates some of
the best investment instruments from across the funds spectrum and
couples with educational content about the industry and specific
products. The ADVFN Funds Showcase was initiated after research
conducted by Investment Trends highlighted that 32% of ADVFN users*
currently invest in investment trusts (the second largest product
after UK equites) with a further 22% investing in ETFs and 21% in
managed funds.
Products from a range of asset management companies are given
high visibility on the ADVFN platform. The site's 525,000 monthly
UK users are able to get the latest in-depth information on these
select opportunities at the touch of a button.
The ADVFN Fund Showcase covers Unit Trusts, OEICs, investment
trusts and ETFs and can be found at www.fundsuk.advfn.com/ or
navigated to from a prominent new featured button on the ADVFN main
menu.
"Funds are great for investors that don't have the time,
inclination or capital to study and invest across global markets.
Instead this effort can be outsourced to fund managers who make the
universe of investment opportunities accessible to anyone," said
Clem Chambers, CEO of ADVFN. "With high levels of interest amongst
UK investors for this type of investing, it is an excellent time to
launch a service that provides extensive content about the funds
industry. The ADVFN Funds Showcase gives asset management firms a
unique chance to reach a giant audience of private investors
looking for more insight into this market."
