The major differentiator of the robo-adviser is its ignorance of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and focus on portfolios invested in dividend-paying equities.
Emperor CEO and co-founder Brenna Casserly said: “We strongly believe that if you love a company, you need to invest directly in it, not simply in a basket that holds that particular company along with many others which you may not want exposure to.”
The robo-adviser’s model enables clients to opt for multiple custom portfolios, each having its own investment horizon and risk appetite.
Users can open an account for a minimum investment of $500, at an annual fee of 0.6%.
