It’s been a little while since we’ve seen you all, so we wanted to host a meet up with Adam, Viktor, and some other special guests at Freetrade’s offices in London. You’ll have the chance to ask some questions and meet a few of the newer members of the leadership team too.
The event will be hosted at 10 Devonshire Square, London, on 3 April 2023, starting at 6:00pm.
We’ll kick things off with some beer and pizza.
If you’re thinking of coming or have any questions for the team, drop a comment on the thread below We’ll do our best to answer them, along with any questions from the crowd, on the night of.
I would love to know which country will be next to offer Freetrade to it’s citizens and will the roll out to each country offer that countries pensions ie;ISA-UK ISK-Sweden etc;
Great that Freetrade is engaging with the community again. Getting to London for me is just a little to far but looking foward to joining via the link.
Has there been negotiations for a sale of Freetrade? If so, can details be shared? This may dispel any rumours.
If there are no plans for a sale, what is the plan for IPO. I know previously discussions have taken place with proposals of 2023/24. This seems unrealistic given the current climate.
People have already asked some money related questions so I have these questions
Given Freetrade look to be positioning as a competitor to more mainstream brokers like HL and ii, where does Freetrade think they sit in terms of this competition and what are you looking to improve to better compete? i.e. target market, costs, services available
HL and ii both offer savings accounts using partners, funds (is there money to make there?), and HL for example is banking on expanding its financial advice services to expand their revenue streams beyond just stock market investments. Are you looking at other traditional revenue streams like these? (not including crypto, please don’t go there, everyone thinks its bad )
Some competitors like 212 are -for various reasons- able to offer services at extremely low cost which is often all that a lot of people look at. What specifically puts Freetrade in a better position as a broker that customers should consider? be it technical differences, service advantages, or anything else people should consider when picking a broker
Have you seen any interesting trends in investing on Freetrade over the unpredictable times in the recent couple of years?
Can Freetrade share their rationale for the upcoming price changes and why this is being brought in given the previous price change only occured six months ago?
CMC Invest seem to be one of the closest comparable platforms to Freetrade. They’re early days but offer a similar fee structure and are pulling together some similar features and features to stand apart from Freetrade. How is Freetrade looking to compete in the near future with someone like CMC?
