Fair Investment partners with uSwitch.com to power new investment service
05 May 2010 / by Rachel Mason
Leading investment services provider Fair Investment Company has partnered with uSwitch.com to offer the comparison site’s customers a brand new investment service.
“We are delighted to be working with uSwitch.com and providing their customers with our market leading investment comparison service,” said David Doulton, director at Fair Investment Company.
uSwitch.com, famous for its utilities, broadband, insurance, credit card and savings comparisons, wanted to offer its customers investment products and services, and turned to Fair Investment Company for a solution.
“We already provide our customers with award winning financial comparison on a wide range of products and services, but had no investment offering,” explains Dilshad Issa, commercial manager at uSwitch.com.
“Fair Investment Company has one of the most comprehensive investment services on the web, so we decided to work together with the firm to create a similar service on uSwitch.com.”
The new uSwitch investments service offers investments and savings products from leading providers like RBS, Jupiter, Invesco Perpetual, Fidelity, Black Rock and Schroders. Displayed in easy to understand tables under headings such as ‘investing for growth’ and ‘investing for income’, investors have access to a wide range of products and services including stocks and shares ISAs, bonds, structured products, funds and specialist funds as well as children’s savings and share dealing accounts.
David concluded, “we have already seen thousands make use of the service in its trial period, and we predict these levels to continue to rise.”
