Meniga is expanding its PFM solution to add a new, highly user-centric layer on top of traditional online/mobile banks. 

The interface de-emphasizes real accounts and actual balances and instead shows "uncommitted balance" and virtual accounts. It also allows users to automate routine tasks and includes an alert framework designed to bring peace of mind by alerting users before bills go unpaid or before any account's balance becomes too low to meet commitments and forecasted expenses.

Investing is scary. I can invest, but I forget to buy or sell or rebalance. My financial advice has been useless. I want to be in control of my finances. I know I should be doing more with my money. 

Nutmeg knows that investing is about more than money. It's a passport to the life you want. That opportunity shouldn't be reserved just for the wealthy, or just for those in-the-know.

Nutmeg asks, what if investing were simple and beautiful? And what if everyone could do it?
