Many existing approaches to automate investments have limitations. Acorns (https://vvwvv.acorns.com/), for instance, is limited to automated investments and round up investments in the equity and bond Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) fund space. Stash (https:/i\.′w\v_:U.tsh_.corni) offers equities, bonds and gold ETFs, but it isn't fully automated and doesn't have alternative assets like solar, wind, oil, gas ETFs, nor digital assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Monero or Crypto ETFs. RoundlyX (httr:s_.i/v.wv..rundlvx corni) offers investments in digital assets and currency only, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Thus, the platform is extremely limited in scope and risk intense. The first two approaches rely on an antiquated investment model (Markowitz) that was developed in 1952 in a hawkish monetary environment and the third relies on purely speculative products. Therefore, there is a need for a new method and system that achieves optimal return capacity mitigated for risk.
There currently is no round-up application or system that offers an adequate range of assets class diversity in the U.S. The specific construction of digital wallets with traditional security exchanges is unique and disclosed herein.
The disclosed method and system of this round-up application and system solves the deficiencies with other previous round-ups to continue to leverage the change spread in transactions and allow them to be applied to micro-share investments, in both ETFs and tokens. It's the combination thereof of traditional, alternative and digital-currency products that gives this invention the ability to simplify the creation of an efficient frontier portfolio construction. This novel approach will allow retail investors to obtain, automatically, a construction of a portfolio of investment products previously only available to institutional investors that can afford the fees of fund managers to construct such portfolios essentially manually.
Preferred and alternative examples of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the following drawings:
In a preferred embodiment, and by way of non-limiting example, a user logs into the trading platform website at the front end via mobile phone browser, i.e. Google's Android or
Apple's iOS operating system, via the trading app downloaded from an app store, or via the trading website. Other operating systems or website interfaces may be used.
The user creates an account or logs into an existing account and answers a series of questions to determine his or her investment risk tolerance in any of the available investment categories, i.e. traditional asset investments (equities, bonds), alternative asset investments (solar, wind, oil, gas, among others) and crypto-currency investments (bitcoin, ethereum or crypto currency ETFs). Any other asset class may also be included.
From there, via encrypted connection, the investing platform analyzes the user's answers via its smart portfolio management algorithms. A model portfolio is created for micro investment fractional share ETF round-up. The round-up feature would give a weighted range of percentages of traditional allocation, alternative allocation and digital allocation predicated on investors risk tolerance and financial goals. (0-50% digital/0-100% traditional/0-100% alternative).
At this point, the system invests the user's funds according to the determined model portfolio percentages. The disclosed system makes micro investment fractional share purchases by communicating via API integration with stock market exchanges, crypto market exchanges, bank and investment accounts and crypto wallets.
While the preferred embodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described, as noted above, many changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is not limited by the disclosure of the preferred embodiment. Instead, the invention should be determined entirely by reference to the claims that follow.
This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 17/533,821 filed Nov. 23, 2021, which claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 63/118,005 filed Nov. 24, 2020, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety as if fully set forth herein.
