No minimum deposit amount required and you have the option to deposit in AED or USD.

You have full discretion on how much and when you want to invest, including no minimum balance to maintain the account. You may also skip a month or two, resume, and withdraw whenever you wish. All without incurring charges or penalties.

The annual management fee is calculated as a percentage of the total assets under management, ranging from 0.2% to  0.8%, and is charged monthly on a pro-rata basis. For example,  if you invested on the 15th of a particular month, we will not charge you for the first 15 days. 

The other fee included is the low fee associated with the ETFs, averaging 0.15% to 0.25%.

Additionally, there is a currency conversion fee charged by our vendor, at 0.08% on top of the spot rate. This preferential rate compares favourably against the significantly higher currency conversion fees charged by commercial or retail banks (can easily be in excess of 1% depending on transaction size).

Unlike most traditional financial managers, we do not (and never will) charge for withdrawals or account closures.
