Enabling the national debate on money matters
We also want to raise the national debate on good financial habits and investing even further.
That’s why we’ve joined forces with The Investment Association and leading financial firms in launching the ‘Invest for the Future’ – a landmark initiative to help people across the UK invest for their future. The aim is to help build greater confidence and understanding around investing, remove some of the perceived complexity, and encourage more people to take a first step.
With support from HM Treasury, the Financial Conduct Authority and the Money and Pensions Service, we’re committed to raising awareness of the importance of investing for financial wellbeing and the positive impact it can have on the wider economy.
We are also delighted to support The Times ‘Smarter with Money’ campaign, which aims to equip everyone with the personal finance knowledge needed to make life’s big decisions.
By backing these campaigns that will help to encourage more people to take steps towards investing, we’re sharing the ambition to see many more people across the UK putting their money to work for the long term.
Strengthening our proposition, deepening our relationships
Helping more people plan, save and invest for their financial future is a major focus for NatWest Group.
With the acquisition of Evelyn Partners, expected to complete in the summer, and the strength of Coutts, we’re creating the UK’s leading private banking and wealth management business – and crucially, making high‑quality advice and investment expertise accessible to more people.
We also have a strong proposition for our NatWest customers across our Retail Banking and Premier Banking, allowing clients to access multi-asset funds through our digital offering and our simplified advice proposition.
With this strength of offering and our long-standing focus on financial education and conversations we believe we can help overcome the structural, psychological, and cultural barriers to investing.
In doing so we can help with building a nation of investors, enhancing individual financial security and supporting the UK’s economic growth.
