Most of the Investors trust clients are expats or locals in Latin American, Africa and Asia.

If you want to invest as an expat or high-net-worth individual, you can email me (nelson@innovestglobalwealth.com) What are the basics associated with S&P500 investing? The basic elements of the plans are below: The plans are available in USD only. With a minimum starting point of $200 a month, this option can be taken out over 10, 15, or 20 years. The 10-year option only has a 100% guarantee, meaning that you don’t have much downside protection. The 15 and 20-year accounts have 140% and 160% protection respectively, meaning that you can make some money, even if the market has fallen. There is a $10 a month fixed-charge alongside a 0.125% monthly fee applied on all terms. The admin fee is 2% for the 10-year account, 1.7% for the 15-year, and 1.1% for the 20-year.

Pros and Cons of Investors Trust Evolution Savings Plan Benefits of Savings Plan Loyalty and additional allocations Diverse selection of mutual funds Extensive range of choices from asset managers Online portfolio monitoring Minimal initial investment requirement Complimentary fund transfers Cheaper than most plans like this on the market Disadvantages of Savings Plan Investors with enough money to do a lump sum might find those products are better for their needs. Investors who need access to their funds before the policy matures may be affected by surrender charges that are tied to the policy’s term if they cash out their policies early. Unlike the S&P500 account, the returns aren’t guaranteed. Conclusion This is a cheaper and more flexible plan than most of the competitors. There are some great fund choices. However, it is only good for people in certain situations, and you should seek guidance to make sure the plan is aligned to what you want to achieve.

Investors Trust Access Portfolio Review Investors Trust stands as the worldwide emblem representing the ITA Group of firms. Originating in 2002 as an international insurance conglomerate, Investors Trust has broadened its scope to encompass clientele across over 100 markets globally, operating through numerous office hubs to cater to its diverse international audience. Distinguished for its focus on medium to long-term unit-linked investment offerings, Investors Trust delivers an extensive array of solutions tailored explicitly for international investors. With operational presence in the Cayman Islands, Malaysia, and Puerto Rico, Investors Trust maintains service points in strategic locations including Dubai, Hong Kong, Uruguay, and a central corporate support office in the United States. Investors Trust Access Portfolio is a range of investment solutions offered by Investors Trust Assurance SPC, a leading international insurance company. The Access Portfolio aims to provide investors with flexible and diversified investment options to help them achieve their financial goals This article will review the product and explain why some investors will get good returns compared to others, making the advisor you pick essential to your investing success. The article will also briefly review the fixed income and platinum portfolios as well – two other lump sum options available on Investors Trust. If you want to invest as an expat or high-net-worth individual, you can email me (nelson@innovestglobalwealth.com) or Reach me via WhatsApp at +1 803 857 2161 Advisors and introducers who want to distribute Investors Trust globally can also reach out to me. Where is Investors Trust Access Portfolio sold? Worldwide, but often in expat-focused areas such as Dubai, Africa, Shanghai, Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brussels, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Qatar and various other locations. For locals, Latin America, Japan, China, Russia and South Korea are probably the biggest markets. What are the costs of Investors Trust Access Portfolio? It depends which option is chosen. The Access Portfolio Plus only costs 1% per year for admin charges, whereas the Access 800 Series is charged at 1.2% per year and policy fee of 180 USD per quarter. What are the biggest misconceptions about Investors Trust? The three biggest ones are that they are only in the Cayman Islands, are a relatively small company and don’t have great investor protections. To the contrary they are an A-rated institution which is now in Puerto Rico and Malaysia. They also don’t use offshore banks, and instead only use A-rated onshore banks like HSBC (US) and Standard Chartered (UK) to hold the funds, even though they are domiciled offshore as an organisation. Together with the segregated account system, these protections are top notch. For that reason, it is perhaps unsurprising that they have been one of the fastest growing companies in their niche in recent years, and are thus no longer a small company. Many older views fail to take account of this. Investors Trust Access Portfolio Investments minimum account for Investors Trust Access Portfolio For the Access Portfolio, $75,000USD, 75,000 Euros and 50,000GBP are the minimum account sizes. The minimum additional investments are 5,000GBP, 7,500USD and 7,500 Euros respectively, for top ups. What about if you don’t have $75,000 or currency equivalent? Investors Trust do have a smaller lump sum product called the Platinum. It starts from $10,000/10,000GBP/10,000 Euros. This product has less investment choices than the access portfolio, but does have some of the better fund options, such as the S&P500 index fund. In general, the fees associated with the Platinum can be higher than the Access portfolio, but that depends on which option you select, as there are three options associated with the Platinum portfolios. What is the duration of Investors Trust Access Portfolio investment? Different periods can be chosen. 5 years, 8 years and open-ended charging structures can be picked on day one. There are no early surrender charges if the open charging structure is put in place. In comparison, early surrender charges exist if you wish to leave the investment early on the 5 year and 8 year options. The three different products are called the Access 5000 series, the Access Portfolio 8000 Series and the Access Portfolio Plus. Full list of Investors Trust Access Portfolio investment managers available On the Access Portfolio, there are too many options to list here, but the most popular ones include: Ishares Blackrock Morgan Stanley Pimco Janus Henderson Franklin Templeton MFS Investec Fidelity AllianceBernstein Vanguard Vanguard isn’t available on the Platinum portfolio but it is available on the Access Portfolio. Investors have access to many International Government Bonds, Corporate Bonds, and Sharia Bonds. Investors have access to all Stocks on the NASDAQ, NYSE and the European and Asian Stock Markets Investors have access to funds managed by the world’s largest asset management firms like BlackRock, Vanguard, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Alliance Bernstein and many more. Are there any other lump sum options? For people looking for pure income, Investors Trust have a fixed income portfolio. This portfolio gives you the option to invest for 3, 5 and 15 years. The 3 and 5 year rates are fixed, with a minimum contribution of $10,000. The rates on offer are very low though – 1.75% for 3 years and rising to up to 3.6% for 10 year plans, so this should only be considered as a slightly better option than keeping your money in the bank. The positive about this plan is that the investments are backed up by Investors Trust’s assets and only cost $7 a month. That means Investors Trust invests the money (it is the only product they offer where they invest the money rather than the advisor) and hope to make more money than they are giving the client in return. If they don’t achieve that, they need to repay the client from their own assets. What have been some of the best performing funds on this Investors Trust Access Portfolio? That depends on which timeframes you look at. In recent years, US markets have done best, with emerging and energy-linked ETFs, facing downward pressure, with a lower oil price. Sometimes today’s winners are tomorrow’s losers, and vice versa, though. A great example of this is if you compare US and international stocks. Historically, each has a period of over performance, according to work from Fidelity :
