— INVESTING WITH EBS —
Build an investment portfolio that meets your needs
We all have long term goals for our future. If you want the chance to invest and grow your lump sum in the long term, our choice investments could be the perfect solution.
Your investment is used to buy units in a range of investment funds. The value of your plan is then linked to the value of the unit in these investment funds.
If you have a lump sum to invest for at least five years, and the return on deposit rates just don’t cut it for you, that’s okay. Our choice investments aim to achieve higher returns than deposit accounts.
