Power your Financial Future
SCM Direct is a challenger investment company that offers clients low cost access to high end wealth management, previously the preserve of very wealthy clients, family offices and institutional clients.
SCM offers clients a better way of investing based on evidence, experience and ethics
Leveraging technology has allowed us to level the playing field and to grow and compete more effectively in the wealth management industry. It allows us to engender trust with consumers via 100% transparency, fair pricing and solution driven products, which culminates in SCM being a disruptive but positive force in investing.
The founders of SCM have invested significant amounts of their own wealth alongside clients, on exactly the same terms and fees. This alignment means the team is never tempted to take unnecessary risk, or only think about success in terms of profit margins.
We are committed to 100%transparency in all that our company undertakes and also operate a ‘profit for purpose’ model where a significant percentage of profits go to small dynamic community charities, primarily in the UK, doing transformational work with the most vulnerable in society.
SCM’s investment strategy is a rational one that balances Cost, Risk and Returns and is underpinned by integrity. Because no investment professional as a crystal ball, we concentrate on the elements we can control.
We achieve this by:
embracing efficiency and technology minimising costs which are accepted as the biggest eroder of investment returns, as well as passing on economies of scale reducing risk through significant diversification and only investing in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) being contrarian and conducting fundamental analysis rather than following the herd aiming for consistent positive returns, year after year.
