How does it work? 

When you sign up for your Finch account, they ask you a few questions to determine your risk tolerance and goals. They use this information to provide you personalized investment recommendations and guidance to build your portfolio. Finch only offers a curated set of large, diversified, low-cost stock ETFs and bond ETFs created by some of the world’s largest asset managers. This is to make your investment choices simple while managing risk to a level that is appropriate for your everyday account.

Finch offers two portfolio options (Stable and Growth) depending on your risk and return preferences.

• Stable: Invests in a basket of short-term US treasuries, short-term corporate bonds, and cash. Their Stable portfolio is their lowest risk portfolio and does not have market exposure. This portfolio is suitable for those who want to dip their toes into investing while aiming to preserve their capital in all market conditions.
• Growth: Invests in a basket of US stocks, bonds, and cash. Their Growth portfolio, does have market exposure, but they manage risk through diversification. This portfolio is suitable for those who are willing to accept some level of risk for the possibility of greater long term growth. Finch also provides the option to make your Growth portfolio sustainable which means you can exclusively invest in companies that meet social and environmental standards.
