There are investment instruments with higher and lower risk. Read the information about the different investment instruments and the information from our Investment Office. Then you can decide whether investing on your own is right for you and what you might want to invest in.
Or you may prefer a ready-made solution such as Easy Invest.
"},"title":"Is investing on your own possible?"},{"richBody":{"value":"What investing on your own can yield depends on what you invest in, when, and for how long. Return and risk go hand in hand. The higher the expected return, the higher the risk generally is.

If you have your money invested for you, for example with Easy Invest or Pension Investing, you only need to open the account and decide how much risk you want to take. We do the rest for you.
You can also choose to invest together with an advisor and make all choices together. That’s possible with Portfolio Management if you want to invest more than €50,000.
