How would StashAway compare with investing in ETFs directly via a broker?
Just thinking out loud:
StashAway charges 0.8% annual fee (for first RM50,000) while some ETFs (VTI, VOO) have low expense ratio in the region of 0.04%.
StashAway annual fee seems to absorb all transaction charges while independent investment will be subject to brokerage fee, etc.
Flexibility in terms of choice of ETFs, of course you can't choose what you hold in StashAway.
Prior work needed, more due diligence would be required for independent investments.
If you have direct access to ETFs in USA via a brokerage, would you still go with StashAway?

It seems like when adjusting risk, Stashaway uses one day to sell, and another day to buy

QUOTE(cucumber @ Mar 24 2021, 04:50 PM) That's a valid concern actually. I'm also an uncle. I can relate to that. But faith/trust is needed when it comes to any sort of investment. Everything is moving towards digital now, this is the future. Adapt or get left behind. For me, I try to diversify as much as I can. Not having all my money in one bank, in one platform, in one robo advisor, in one trading account etc. I will always make sure I keep a record of every single transfer I make to StashAway (aka bank receipts & screenshots). Also download & keep a copy of StashAway's monthly statement pdf and save it somewhere safe. That's some outstanding record keeping there.

QUOTE(Merubin @ Apr 17 2021, 02:27 PM) park a initial deposit and currently apply on monthly basis DCA, to my understanding , SA trade on ETF, do if ETF doesnt move much i assume that SA wont be making much earning ? Do you mean your earnings or the earnings of SA? SA charges commissions regardless of the movement of the underlying assets, subject to any waiver.

QUOTE(Merubin @ Apr 17 2021, 12:56 PM) just out of curiosity, how often you guys perform DCA for SA? Started in Oct 2019 with monthly DCA. Come covid crash in March 2020 changed to weekly DCA. 2021 changed back to monthly
