What We Do
Over the past ten years, DriveWealth has been breaking down the barriers between global investors and U.S. markets and improving the financial lives of people that have been traditionally underserved and underbanked. We’ve built patent-pending technology to fractionalize US equities and were the first to receive a license to do so in 2015.
