Have you thought about the fees you’re paying on your investment portfolio? Adrian Hope-Bailie and his co-founders at Fynbos Money have – and the solution they came up with could save people millions. Drawing from a rich background in the global payments industry, including formative years at Ripple and Coil, Adrian is on a mission to disrupt the South African wealth management landscape.
In this episode of the Business Unusual Podcast he joins Topco CEO, Ralf Fletcher to chat about the shocking realities of traditional financial advisory fees, the emotional barriers to investing, and why Fynbos Money has adopted a radically transparent, flat-fee membership model.
You’ll find out:
- Why standard advisory fees could silently be draining millions from your portfolio over decades
- How shifting to a predictable, flat-fee membership model puts the power and the returns back into your hands
- The hidden constraints tradition advisors face and why industry incentives might be costing you more than you realise
- Why the founder of Fynbos Money rejected the VC, “hyper-growth” model to create a sustainable, self-funded business own their terms
- Why customer support is so important to them and how they’re treating queries as their secret weapon for product innovation
