In general, directly transferring an investment portfolio to another person involves several considerations and is not typically straightforward. The ability to transfer assets depends on the types of investments held and the platform or brokerage where the assets are managed.

For shares, stocks, or ETFs, transferring ownership usually involves a formal change of registration details which can be facilitated by the platform or brokerage where the investments are held. This process often requires completing specific forms and potentially incurring transfer fees or taxes, such as capital gains tax, depending on the jurisdiction.

In the context of managed funds or other investment products, direct transfers to another person are generally not permitted without selling the assets first. The proceeds from the sale could then be given to another person, who could use them to purchase similar or different assets according to their investment preferences.

At Pearler, we focus on making long-term investing accessible and straightforward. If you’re considering transferring your portfolio or any part of it to another person, it’s important to first check the specific terms and conditions related to your investments on the Pearler platform. Additionally, consulting with a financial advisor or a tax professional can provide guidance tailored to your situation, ensuring that any action you take aligns with your overall investment strategy and complies with relevant laws and regulations.
