Beanstalk won Best Junior Stocks and Shares ISA this year, as in previous years, because of their straightforward app that allows parents and grandparents to contribute to a child’s future. The app also includes an intuitive slider feature, letting users adjust between cash and stock market investments based on their preferred risk level.
Julian Robson, founder and CEO of Beanstalk said after winning the award: We’re thrilled to have won the Best Junior ISA Award from the Good Money Guide Awards for the third consecutive year. It’s a fantastic recognition, reflecting our unique and valuable proposition for parents and grandparents who want to invest in their children’s future. Our focus is on encouraging long-term investment over cash savings, as that tends to yield better returns. We aim to support first-time retail investors with a simple solution to put money away for 18 years, and it’s great to see the UK retail investment market thriving.
