Shifting the Online Investing Paradigm
Motif is changing the face of online investing through its inventive, transparent social investing platform that lets anyone invest in ideas based on insights, strategies, events and trends. Motif has more than 100 professionally constructed portfolios to help those who want to invest in everything from a continuing surge in shale oil, a rebound in precious metals, or more strong growth for Asian economies, etc.
In addition, earlier this year, Motif launched a Build-Your-Own feature for customers. Since then, Motif customers have built or customized more than 15,000 new motifs. After consumers build a motif, they can publish it on the Motif website, making it discoverable and searchable by the broader community.
Starting today, when another customer buys a motif created by a member of the community, the creator will be eligible for compensation through Motif's Creator Royalty Program. The motif creator also has insight into the popularity of the motif through an easy-to-use and dynamic dashboard, which displays performance, number of watches, and number of people who purchased or rebalanced the custom motif.
For instance, a customer might want to create a motif betting on the repeal of Obamacare by putting together a basket of medical device stocks that have been handicapped by the 2.3% excise tax under Obamacare. Another customer might put together a motif assuming the continuation of Obamacare and include investments in hospitals, insurance exchanges, etc. that benefit from the additional millions of Americans insured under the act. If either of these motifs becomes popular, their creators could collect significant royalties.
