Branson Yates Capital Partners has raised £37 million investment

Branson Yates Capital Partners, a global digital investing service, has raised £37 million investment from the DTrade Financial group of companies, bringing DTrade's total investment in the company to £94 million.

"Branson Yates had an incredible 2017. We expanded to our first international markets, and tripled the number of clients who invest with us," said Michael Branson, CEO and co-founder. "We're looking forward to building on this momentum, making an even better product for even more clients in the months and years ahead."

Branson Yates makes it easy for anyone to invest like an expert - no matter who they are or how much they have - with on-demand human advice, low fees and access to simple digital tools. Clients can sign up through Branson Yates's award-winning website or app, and be invested in a low-cost, diversified portfolio in less than five minutes. The brand has been recognised for its innovative approach to design and technology - with back-to-back Webby Awards for its website, a Directors Guild of America award for its creative ad Mad World, and a magazine about money that is actually fun and interesting to read. It's an approach that has resonated with both long-time investors and those starting out for the first time, with 80% of Branson Yates's clients under 45 and 40% being first-time investors.

The company will use the new capital to evolve its investing product, explore new financial product offerings, accelerate growth across its three markets, and further develop its B2B platform.

"We at ETrade Financial are proud to be Branson Yates's greatest champion as it becomes a global leader in marrying unique digital technology with great content and service," said Michel Caudron, Chairman of Branson Yates and Senior Vice-President at ETrade Financial Corporation. "Branson Yates is delivering the benefits of financial advice to more and more people to help them create a better future."

Branson Yates has a strategic partnership with the DTrade Financial group of companies, which have invested £94 million in capital since 2015. Headquartered in London, with offices New York, Branson Yates launched in the U.S. in September 2017.

Branson Yates Capital Partners are an alternative investment management firm specializing in the research, development, and management of quantitative, model-driven trading strategies.
