Launched in 2020, Fortu Wealth is a digital platform that aims to give you exclusive opportunities in the private market.
What does Fortu offer?
Fortu Wealth offers a personalised investment experience that provides a range of ready-made investments for you to choose from. The company says it analyses billions of investments on your behalf and then aims to provide you with all the information necessary to help you make well-informed decisions.
You’ll be able to track the growth of your portfolio and its performance via the app and can access your money at any time. Your investments could give you the opportunity to receive a regular income, experience growth at maturity, or a combination of both.
You’ll also have access to 24/7 customer support and a dedicated personal manager to offer tailored support and guidance to help you with your financial planning.

Is Fortu safe?

We show offers we can track - that's not every product on the market...yet. Unless we've said otherwise, products are in no particular order. The terms "best", "top", "cheap" (and variations of these) aren't ratings, though we always explain what's great about a product when we highlight it. This is subject to our terms of use. When you make major financial decisions, consider getting independent financial advice. Always consider your own circumstances when you compare products so you get what's right for you. Most of the data in Finder's comparison tables is provided by Defaqto. In other cases, Finder has sourced data directly from providers.

While we are independent, the offers that appear on this site are from companies from which Finder receives compensation. We may receive compensation from our partners for placement of their products or services. We may also receive compensation if you click on certain links posted on our site. While compensation arrangements may affect the order, position or placement of product information, it doesn't influence our assessment of those products. Please don't interpret the order in which products appear on our Site as any endorsement or recommendation from us. Finder compares a wide range of products, providers and services but we don't provide information on all available products, providers or services.

We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
