We seek to be Australia's #1 wealth platform to do-it-yourselfinvestors.

InvestSMART has growing funds under management (FUM) of $246m (end 2020) and offers membership based investment content driven publications to fee paying subscribers (Intelligent Investor and The Eureka Report).

InvestSMART is Chaired by Paul Clitheroe, one of Australia's pioneering fee-for-service financial planners and most respected and trusted media commentators.

Products & services. InvestSMART Group runs Professionally Managed Accounts (PMA)* with capped fees (up to $451) and under its Intelligent Investor brand, three active ASX listed ETFs.**

PMA Accounts focus on investing into a large universe of preferred ETFs selected to provide a unique balance between performance returns, cost efficiency and risk diversification. Our proprietary investment research methodology screens a large universe of Australian and overseas ETFs, selecting only those which deliver leading returns relative to performance benchmarks and which have low management fees. Investors can create customised and diversified investment portfolios (based on ETFs) to suit their individual needs. Our investment portfolios differ in the levels of risk and return, and each offers a different investment emphasis.***

The Intelligent Investor and Eureka Report membership based content publications and tools were developed to assist investors. Intelligent Investor is a provider of research based views on companies and investment themes. This research also forms the basis for stock selection in Intelligent Investor's ASX listed active ETFs. The Eureka Report is founded by Alan Kohler and today remains its Editor-in-Chief, one of Australia's most experienced business commentators. Eureka Report provides commentary and insights on investment strategy (including SMSF), markets and companies (including CEO interviews).

Technology. InvestSMART deploys and develops proprietary digital solutions to efficiently and effectively run its business to deliver exceptional customer experience - quality advice, research and easy-to-use tools for its clients. Investment tools developed by InvestSMART provide foundational knowledge for investors, such as through our short course 'Bootcamp', and free tools to monitor and assess investment performance via our 'Portfolio Manager'.
