Give the kids a nest egg this Easter
Finding the perfect Easter gift for children or grandchildren can be tricky. This year, consider swapping chocolate for a nest egg: an investment held in trust for their future. Through FMD’s Rev Invest platform, you can give a gift that grows with them, builds lifelong financial skills and supports their future goals. It's quick and easy to set-up and account in trust for someone aged under 18 and there's online support if you need help.
Rev Invest: Strong performance and a great way to learn about investing
Children have something adults don’t: time. Even small contributions made now have decades to compound. Rev Invest makes it easy to start building early wealth. An investment trust isn’t just a financial gift; it’s also about building financial literacy in kids.
As children get older, an online investment account is a tangible way to them understand what investing is, why regular contributions matter, how markets rise and fall, and the power of compound returns. Now celebrating more than three years, the platform has delivered strong performance across five distinct portfolios. It’s easy to open an account in a few quick steps at revinvest.com.au

How to set up a Rev Invest account for a child
A trust is an easy way to invest for a child. The assets are held for them while you act as trustee, staying in control of decisions and withdrawals until they’re ready to take over. Parents or relatives can set up a Rev Invest account for anyone under 18 by following the simple five-step process and choosing ‘On behalf of a Minor.’ The account is designated to the child, but the investment stays legally in your name until they come of age
The financial education your kids didn't get at school
For those not yet ready to invest, but keen to boost their money knowledge, savings and credit score, we've partnered with the team at Flux Finance, developers of a popular app designed to do just that.
