You can find a few useful tips here in this article.

I have an empty Selma investment account and want to restart my investments

No problem at all. As you know, an empty investment account does not cost you any fees and you can restart investing simply by making a deposit into your investment account.

1. Update your investor profile

Before restarting your investments, it makes sense to update your investor profile. Your investor profile is core as it defines how Selma puts together your investments. It is based on the answers you give Selma regarding your financial situation, your willingness towards risk and your investment horizon. Updating your profile helps Selma to make sure your investments fit your life situation in an optimal way.

You can update your investor profile here.

2. Start to deposit into your Selma investment account

You can restart your Selma investments by simply depositing money into your investment account. You can find the account details here.

Remember that the minimum amount to start your investments is CHF 2'000.- so that Selma can optimally distribute your money among the different ETFs right from the start. After that, you are fully flexible about how often and how much you want to make further deposits into your investment account.

Many clients use Selma to invest regularly – an easy way to systematically build investment over time.

3. Reset your performance

The performance calculations of your investment account usually include everything that has happened since your first started at Selma. If you want to reset the performance to the date when you restart investing again, please contact our customer support after you have deposited money again.

4. Make the most of Selma’s personalisation tools
