Transact – the award-winning investment platform, chosen by us to provide smart technology, unrivalled support and exceptional service, has announced that over 54% of investor clients have logged onto Transact Online (TOL) in the last year. Up by 11% since 2018, this figure represents a broader trend for consumers expecting access to information and services online. Alongside the governments Go Digital campaign, we believe that this can only be a good thing as it promotes better understanding of investment opportunity and a secure platform for reference. “Knowledge is power” as Francis Bacon said (and later reiterated by Thomas Jefferson) and we embrace new technologies to enable this. However, we also believe that this just gives us more to discuss at face-to-face meetings and if (like the other 46%) you are internet-averse, we are always available for a chat!
