Five Institutional Grade Mutual Funds Added to EFG Hermes ONE App

In a move that signals a significant shift in the accessibility of professional asset management, EFG Hermes has integrated its five top-performing mutual funds into the EFG Hermes ONE app. For the modern investor, the message is clear: the era of exclusive institutional-grade products is over.

For decades, EFG Hermes has been a cornerstone of investment opportunities in the MENA region, managing complex portfolios for global institutions. Now, the firm is leveraging its award-winning asset management team to empower the retail market, removing traditional barriers to entry and replacing them with a digital-first experience.

“We’re giving more people a straightforward way to access institutional-quality investment solutions," said Karim Zaafan, Managing Director at EFG Hermes Asset Management. "Our goal is to empower investors with options that cater to a broad spectrum of risk appetites without requiring a large starting amount, so anyone can begin with an amount that fits their means.”

The new selection on EFG Hermes ONE covers the full spectrum of risk and reward, ensuring that every investor can find a vehicle suited to their specific goals. The Money Market Fund serves as a low-risk entry point for those seeking daily liquidity and cash management, while the USD-denominated Fixed Income Fund offers a strategic tool for hard-currency exposure through instruments like Egyptian Eurobonds. For those looking to hedge against economic uncertainty, the Gold Fund provides the security of the precious metal without the logistical headaches of physical storage. Growth-oriented investors can look to the Equity Fund for actively managed exposure to the Egyptian Stock Exchange, or the Islamic Equity Fund for Shariah-compliant growth targeting fundamentally strong companies within the EGX 33 Shariah Index.

While the delivery mechanism is modern and digital, the foundations remain rooted in the firm’s decades-long track record of governance and execution. For the retail user, this translates to a level of professional oversight and rigor typically reserved for billion-dollar funds.

The move has arrived as a milestone in financial inclusion in Egypt’s rapidly evolving financial landscape, ensuring that the tools for long-term financial success and smart capital allocation are more accessible, intuitive, and readily available to all.
