Milestone alert๐จ
Post yesterday's market close we crossed $1 Billion in assets on @Vested_finance !
The asset mix is heavily skewed towards US stocks and ETFs but Managed Portfolios, Private Markets and Global Funds are increasingly becoming meaningful contributors.
Honestly, we never imagined that we could get here when we started. We had to:
- create a new category
- navigate cross-border regulations
- build products (money movement, tax reports and more) that no one had built before
- (most importantly) earn customer trust
The magic formula --> a rock solid team + incredibly loyal customers + a whole lot of support from the universe
So much more to do in our journey to becoming the best Global Investing platform for Indians across the world. But this weekend we will celebrate! ๐

@jamesqquick That's not just non-developers.
We tend to underestimate the complexity until we start actively working on it.
Probably one of the reasons estimated timelines are often wrong.
