The Investors Centre Press Kit
Everything journalists, podcast hosts, and investors need to accurately cover The Investors Centre — the UK's leading independent broker review platform, tested with real money.
About
Who We Are
The Investors Centre was founded in 2023 with a clear mission: to test UK trading platforms with real money. While other comparison sites simply rewrite marketing brochures or use AI to generate generic summaries, we open live accounts.
We are not financial advisors — we are professional platform auditors. Our team has opened 100+ real-money brokerage accounts, deposited over £250,000 of our own capital to test spreads, withdrawal speeds, and execution, and logged 1,100+ hours stress-testing platforms and customer support lines.
We operate across four markets: the United Kingdom (theinvestorscentre.co.uk), Australia, Canada, and Ireland (theinvestorscentre.com). Our team of 10 covers everything from beginner investing guides to advanced crypto leverage trading — independently, with the retail investor's interest first.
