Short answer: Choose the roboadvisor. Assuming you're a young adult, capital appreciation is probably the most important for you. Going through a robo-advisor, which can invest in global/US equities is probably a better bet for you!

Given that you just started investing, I highly recommend you going with Robo-advisors with a global portfolio. This will give you a more diversified portfolio and greater growth potential.

I personally have investments in 3 of them namely Syfe, StashAway, and DBS DigiPorfolio.

I do monthly updates on my portfolio returns so you can take a look here.

Robo-advisors. Look into Stashaway, Syfe or even Singlife or Autowealth....

I’ve just started working and with that I also started learning how to invest. Currently, my plan is to RSP $100 into STI ETF, Stashaway and Syfe per month. Would that be a good starting point?

Would like to ask which robo-advisor platform is better? As this is my first time investing and currently I just start working. Planning to do monthly $100 investment but I have no clue which platform?

Hi, I am a beginner in investing, looking to start with robos. After setting aside emergency fund, is it wise to DCA 20% of my salary into robos instead of putting it in banks?

I’m in my 20s, still studying, are there any value-adding part-time jobs in the banking sector? I've already started investing on STI ETF, and I'm looking into robo-advisors next. Should I enter in lump-sum or DCA? How should I take my next step?

Just started to read up on investing and trying my hand on it at 25. Have placed a sum in Temasek bond and SSB, also trying ETFs and Robo-advisors. I still have 1k, should I place it in bluechips or robo-advisors?
