Investec Wealth & Investment today unveils 'Click & Investaurant', which has been designed to cater for financially cautious Brits and encourage them to reassess their perception of risk through an innovative menu selection.  

Click & Investaurant opens this afternoon to mark the launch of Investec's new service Click & Invest, which offers an actively managed online investment service for those with £10,000 or more to invest. Click & Invest combines the expertise of a dedicated team of Investment Managers, and over 180 years of wealth management experience to deliver an out of the ordinary experience. Click & Invest is designed for consumers with all levels of investment experience, including those who have considered long-term financial investment too risky for them.

Every Tuesday evening for the month of July, people looking to enjoy the Investaurant menu, have a limited offer to visit 155 Bar & Kitchen, Clerkenwell where diners will pay £38 per head for a two-course meal based on their survey result at the Investaurant.

To better understand the barriers that prevent consumers considering investing, Click & Invest has released research exploring consumers' attitudes to risk. The research shows how few consumers understand the investment opportunities available to them and a staggering 75% wouldn't even consider investing if they received a sudden windfall of £10,000. Reasons for this include the chance of losing money and a lack of understanding due to the use of jargon involved.
