Last week we were pleased to launch our new nationally representative report revealing the sentiments of the UK’s high net-worth and retail investors, in addition to money minded consumers. Titled Investments in 2018: The Human Factor, the report unveiled illuminating insights from a body of data representing 30.6 million investors nationwide, a staggering 89% of which – 27 million – elected to not use the technology. Over half of the sample – 56 % – equating to 17.4m people UK-wide stated that this is because they need human interaction to feel safe about an investment of any sort.
The report was covered extensively in the media across print, broadcast and online. Luke Davis – CEO and founder of IW Capital first spoke exclusively to Nick Howard on Jazz FM’s Business Breakfast Show about the research, which you can listen to here: https://www.jazzfm.com/on-air/programmes/business-breakfast-with-oanda/
