Curvo exists because investing
through Bolero is a slog

Adopt the best saving habits without effort

Saving is easy when it's automated. Set up your monthly plan and get peace of mind that your money is working for you.

Good investing starts with a plan

Picking stocks or the latest thematic ETF is fun, but it's hard to be successful without a strategy.

Invest in a sensible plan tailored to you and your goals, and set yourself up for long-term success.

Get a better return on your time

Don't waste energy figuring out what stocks to buy and when to sell. Start your investment plan and spend your free time on the things that matter most to you.

Made possible by passive investing

Rather than picking individual stocks like Tesla or Apple, passive investing is a way to buy the whole stock market, across all sectors and regions. Essentially, you own a small part of thousands of companies throughout the world.

Passive investing is rational: decisions aren't based on feelings and emotions. It's done through low-cost index funds, that are designed to grow your savings for the long term.

Complexity isn't a feature

Not an overloaded app with useless features, but limited to the essentials: your portfolio and top it up. Great, that's all it needs to be!

What about the difference in price?

Curvo is cheaper than Bolero in most cases. Bolero charges a transaction fee each time you buy (or sell) an ETF or a stock. Our fees are between 0.6% and 1% annually on your total investments.

So what do you get for that?

Yet, Curvo isn't for you if you're a
trader.

Curvo is not for everyone. In fact, someone thought our app looked like a toy. We took it as a compliment because we think simplicity is a feature.

If you're a trader who enjoys analysing candlestick charts and reading quarterly earning reports, then Curvo is not for you.

In that case, a broker like Bolero can be an option. But make sure to also consider the other brokers in Belgium.
