Cube Wealth completes a successful year with zero effort and zero stress motto

June 28, 2019, Mumbai: Cube Wealth, the w
ealth creation service for busy professionals, marks its 1-year anniversary today.Backed by prominent investors from Silicon Valley, Hong Kong, Europe, Singapore and India, Cube Wealth has built an impressive list of customers in just one year. These include senior professionals from Flipkart, Unacademy, Google, Amazon, Uber, Deloitte, Ernst and Young, WeWork, Zeta, ZestMoney, JusPay, Instamojo, Cars24, Upgrad and Milkbasket.

In the last year, Cube clients have invested in 5 regions across the world via 17 hand-picked investment options, offered in the app. Adding to Mumbai, the company has opened offices in 3 new cities in India (Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad) since the start of 2019 and the team has doubled in size in the last 3 months alone.

Cube’s Founder, Satyen Kothari (previously, founder, Citrus Pay) says, “We believe every hard-working professional has the right to aim for total financial freedom. And yet, these honest folks often get terrible investing advice, are sold poor investment products, or simply lack the time or knowledge to invest well for themselves. With Cube, we have handled literally everything. We have brought the best money advisors in India – maybe even the world – into our service. For example, our mutual fund advisor WealthFirst, has a track record of beating the average mutual fund by 50% for the last 19 years. We have simplified the experience to the point where you can be extremely lazy in managing your finances. In fact, we encourage laziness – don’t mess with your portfolio too often! Our tech service and human Wealth Coaches work together to help you at each step. What to do, how to think long-term, and even when to sell!”

Commenting on Cube’s philosophy around adding integrity and accessibility in the messy world of money, Satyen says, “Our team has hand-selected every option in Cube to ensure quality and performance. We put our personal money in before we offer it to our customers and have negotiated deals to provide access to the best possible investment managers that, until now, only the ultra-rich had access to. The starting investment amount can be as low as 15000 rupees or as high as a few crores, making it accessible to all – professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, doctors and homemakers alike, because everyone deserves integrity and quality in the messy world of investing.”

Cube’s mission is to make its customers richer without needing to worry about the confusing world of investing. With Cube Wealth, every busy Indian professional gets:

–       A Wealth Coach from Cube to guide customers at every step to get started
–       Access to India’s best investment managers with amazing track records at low monthly SIPs or one-time deposits
–       Double the interest of a typical Bank Fixed Deposit from their idle money
–       A simple app to track investments – just watch as your wealth grows with time, without any complex jargon or confusing graphs
–       An automatic, magical system that does everything with zero work needed from the customer and yet with full control

Satyen had previously founded Citrus Pay in the online payments industry. Citrus was acquired by PayU in 2016 for $130 Million in the largest fintech cash deal in India. With this background, his experienced team takes the security of each and every one of Cube Wealth’s customers seriously. The service has data protection at the device, server, and database level.
