About Hugo Investing
Your trusted partner in achieving investment success
Hugo is your dedicated partner on your journey to becoming a better investor. Our team is driven by a genuine passion for investing, bringing together a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to your financial success.
Our story begins with the former BinckBank Spain team, where we generated over 60 years of collective experience assisting private investors. At BinckBank, we played a key role in transforming a small fintech firm into one of the leading online investing platforms in the Netherlands. After 16 successful years in Spain, in 2022, we rebranded as Hugo Investing, continuing our mission to support and empower investors like you. “We got where we are today by always looking out for our clients.” – Kaspar Huijsman, Founder and CEO at Hugo
