Why is True Wealth able to offer a securities-based Pillar 3a for free when other providers charge?
Cost efficiency has always been one of True Wealth's core promises. We achieve this through
- consistent automation of processes
- innovative product design
- economies of scale
With existing client relationships, we do not incur any additional costs if we also manage a Pillar 3a. We can also manage the assets ourselves, as we have FINMA license as an asset manager of pension assets – so there are no external license costs.
For legal reasons, the pension assets are always held by a foundation. The 3a Digital Pension Foundation, which holds the pension assets in safekeeping, does not charge us any management fees. We pass all these advantages on to our customers in full.
