How Covid-19 is helping to democratise investing

Investing is democratic and fair, right? Not quite, experts have claimed. Younger investors, those with lower amounts to invest and those just starting out on their investment journeys are often stymied by outdated systems, heavy prospectuses and financial jargon.

Addressing these issues is key to making investment more democratic and helping a new generation become financially independent.  

This week Simoney Kyriakou, editor of Financial Adviser, discusses how fintech and financial literacy can help revolutionise investing and make it a truly democratic process with Ruth Wandhofer, a senior investor in fintech for Gauss Ventures, Michael Kent, from digital money transfer firm Azimo and Anand Sambasivan, chief executive of PrimaryBid.
