To mark the launch of its new online investment service, Click & Invest, Investec launched a pop-up 'Click and Investaurant' to help diners understand the level of risk they would be comfortable in taking.
At the Click and Investaurant, risk-takers have the chance to order menu items like crocodile and crispy crickets, squid ink cod, rabbit and wild nettles, or burgers for those with a low risk tolerance. As Jane Warren, CEO of Click & Invest, says: "with Click & Investaurant we have been able to create an innovative concept for people to explore their appetite for risk while tasting some delicious dishes."
Following a meal, attendees have the chance to try out the online platform via tablets and use a slider to determine "how much you'd like to invest."
