We partner with fund management companies and financial institutions who are licensed and regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or other financial market regulators. Additionally, all funds are held for safekeeping with a bank duly registered and licensed by the Bank of Ghana. 

DigiSave is Achieve’s first offering. It invests in the Plus Income Fund – an open-ended mutual fund managed by Blackstar Advisors (“The Fund Manager”) and held with Stanbic Bank for safekeeping. 

Mutual funds offer one of the easiest ways for you to reap the benefits of compound interest (i.e., earning interest on already earned interest). The more money you invest and the longer that money stays invested, the more compound interest you will earn.
