Welcome to Pertuity

At Pertuity, we believe that your financial life should be uncluttered and straight forward. Not spread thin, complicated, or uncertain. That’s why we give you access to unbiased financial tools and options and make the most useful financial information transparent and available to you – the consumer.

Why are we doing this? Because we are a band of consumers just like you! We recognize that we can achieve so much more than we currently are, with our hard earned money. Above and beyond the need for high quality service from our financial providers, we’ve grappled with some tough questions like:

• How do we make our dollars work harder to increase and maximize the return on our investments?
• How do we obtain the best possible interest rates?
• How do we access credible, fully transparent bank and credit card information?

We launched Pertuity with these thoughts in mind, and invite you to browse our site, learn more, and take the first step towards realizing your financial potential.

Read up on our blogs and visit our expert advice section for the latest thinking on financial matters. Try out our Dare to Compare_SM widget for first-time insights. Make Pertuity your preferred portal to make your money work for you.

Remember to check back with us regularly, as we gear up towards our launch in early 2008; when we will bring to market a disruptive set of  products that will uncomplicate your life, simplify your money and free your dreams.
