International Investments
Expand your investment universe by diversifying your portfolio across countries and currencies.

The benefits of investing internationally are well-known: the valuations of international companies relative to those in South Africa, the opportunity to invest in companies not available in South Africa, and especially portfolio diversification and hedging against currency depreciation and political and economic risk.

The world of international investments can, however, be a daunting one - one of too many investment choices, unfamiliar fund managers and unfamiliar investment procedures.

What you are looking for, is some help to navigate the options that you face.

A distinct objective of Glacier International is to simplify offshore investment, and to guide clients through the offshore investment process. Our solutions are structured around investors' risk profiles - cautious, moderate or aggressive - in order to simplify the selection of funds.

We were the first international platform to provide international stockbroking to local investors, the first to provide a highly guided, open-architecture fund solution,  and the first to introduce international investment strategies which can smooth the investment experience for clients invested in higher risk assets.
