Joint Accounts
Bring dreams to life, for you and your loved ones.
If you would like to build your investments with another person, such as a spouse, business partner, or family member, a joint account will allow you to do so.
Joint investment accounts are equally owned by two to three individuals, and all account owners have equal rights and access to the account.
Why should you open a joint account?
Share your goals and dreams
If you share goals and dreams, why not work together to reach them? By combining your funds, you will have more capital to work with. A larger initial investment will grow your wealth faster if you choose to reinvest and compound your earnings. It may also be useful to be accountable to each other for your investment goals.
Share the love
You may invest on behalf of someone you care about that may not be able to do so for themselves, such as your child or grandchild. In this way, you can set your loved ones up for the future.
Imagine paying your daughter’s university tuition or buying your grandson their first plot of land. All thanks to investments you have made over a long period of time.
Underage individuals
Children under the age of 18 have to open a joint account with a parent or guardian until they are legally able to operate their own accounts.

What do we need to know about our joint investment account?
Minimum Investment
The minimum investment on ALTX is 100 units, which is equivalent to a face value of only UGX 10,000. That’s right, with just ten thousand shillings you can begin earning from your investment instantly.
Account Maintenance Fees
ALTX charges a subscription fee of $6 (or approximately UGX 21,000) per year. This is an annual fee used to maintain our systems and ensure you have an unrivaled investment experience.
The fee is collected when you transact. That is only when you buy (invest) or sell (liquidate).
Regular Investment
In order to benefit from your investment account, it is best to plan to invest regularly. This can be every week, every month, or every quarter. The frequency is up to you but it is important to stick with it.
Regular investment allows you to achieve smooth growth of your wealth over time.
If you would prefer to make smaller investments, for example, investors taking advantage of our UGX 10,000 minimum, you will need to do so more often (at least weekly) in order to meet your goals.
