AJ Bell CEO Andy Bell said: “Dodl by AJ Bell is for anyone looking for a low-cost, easy-to-use investment app to help them meet their investment goals such as saving for a house deposit, holidays or retirement.

“The intuitive investment journey and streamlined investment range will appeal particularly to those that are new to investing and want a simple way to manage their investments.”

Dodl, which will sit alongside the company’s existing consumer platform AJ Bell Youinvest, is set for a rollout in the first half of 2022.

The app will have an annual charge of 0.15% while no commission will be charged for buying and selling investments, according to the company.

In March this year, AJ Bell purchased mobile investment platform developer Adalpha in a bid to strengthen its offering for financial advisers.

Last year, the firm introduced a new service that added managed portfolio services (MPS) from rival discretionary fund managers to its platform.
