EQT – Old Mutual Wealth’s self‑directed online investing platform
Why EQT exists
Some investors prefer to take an active, hands‑on approach to managing their investments. They want clear visibility across their portfolios, direct access to local and global markets, and the ability to make informed decisions independently. EQT supports this approach by providing the tools, infrastructure, and market access needed for self‑directed investing—within the governance and operational standards of Old Mutual Wealth.
Who EQT is designed for
EQT is designed for investors who:
- Want to make their own investment decisions
- Prefer a self‑directed online trading and investing platform
- Seek access to local and global markets
- Value transparency, control, and professional‑grade tools
EQT does not provide investment advice. Investors using the platform retain full responsibility for their investment strategies and decisions.
