CHAIR & CEO MESSAGE
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
We are pleased to report that Raiz has grown our customer base and funds under management (FUM) this past
year, despite the very challenging environment. We believe this is testament to the attractiveness of our userfriendly platform and evidence that our product offer resonates strongly with our customers who continue to
demonstrate loyalty and trust in the Raiz brand.
Since launching in 2016 Raiz has achieved solid growth, with more than 3.4 million sign ups, over 685,000 active
customers and $1.15B FUM at 30 June 2023. In this last year we have seen average balances grow to $3,823.42
(up 17.7%) and annual recurring revenue increase by 3%.
The Board and management team have worked together refreshing and implementing our strategy to focus on
building a sustainable and more profitable business model. The new strategy has seen us reposition the
Southeast Asia operating model and increase our focus on the core Australian business.
Our disciplined approach to executing this strategy was important both for capital management and for delivering
the best outcomes for our shareholders, staff and customers. As a result, our financial performance has
stabilised with a significant reduction of annual expenses and improved cash flow achieved during the year. Our
Australian operations have remained operational cash flow positive, and we are now well positioned for
continued growth and maintaining stronger positive operating cash flows in the current financial year.
Throughout FY23 the team remained determined to deliver results, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Significantly reduced the operating cash burn across the Group in the second half of FY23, achieving
annualised cost savings of $4 million.
Launched the Raiz Property Fund allowing all Australians access to invest in Australian residential
property asset class.
Combined Superestate into Raiz Invest Super and completing respective Successor Fund transfers in
regard to Trustee and Administrators.
Achieved a rating as the number 1 SRI themed Superannuation portfolio over the last 12 months by
SuperRatings for our socially responsible themed Emerald portfolio.
Being named in the CNBC’s Top 200 global fintech companies (one of only seven in Australia) for 2023.
Restructuring the equity ownership in Indonesia and ongoing engagement with our partners in Malaysia
to shift operational functions to local providers.
Since the end of the financial year we have also seen the Plus portfolio rollout in Australia.
What’s next?
We will continue to focus on our strategy of delivering growth and stability and maintaining our brand as a
leading fintech.
Australia
We are committed to continual improvement in innovation and design for the benefit of our customers. We look
forward to delivering exciting new products, as well as operational and system improvements to enhance the
customer experience on the platform.
Southeast Asia
We have de-risked and neutralised the capital outlay required for the SE Asian operations. This change in our
strategy reflects our recognition of the importance of having local on the ground partners in this region and we
look forward to growing the Raiz brand in collaboration with our local partners.

Raiz today is a fundamentally different company with an incredibly bright future.
We will continue to evolve the way we work and build on what we have created with our agile approach, making
us faster to market, more efficient and even more customer centric.
We are laser focussed on creating innovative products and services, supporting customers to build financial
security and delivering a world class product with an exceptional customer experience.
Our hybrid workplace offers our staff and our operations the flexibility demanded in today’s world. We continue to
ensure our teams have all the learning opportunities and tools they need to grow so that Raiz remains a great
place to work.
The Board and team are committed to the governance framework and policies that we have in place and
regularly discuss improvement opportunities. We are actively discussing the development of an ESG framework
to further enhance the long-term sustainability of the business. We are excited to explore and support new
innovations and opportunities as we continue to deliver on our plan.
Thank you
The Raiz Board and staff would like to sincerely thank our hundreds of thousands of loyal customers for your
ongoing support during the year because ultimately without you, there would be no Raiz.
Thank you also to every Raiz employee for the great work you have done and for your constant willingness to
step up and do what’s needed for the benefits of our customers.
And most importantly thank you to our shareholders for your continued support of Raiz Invest. We are looking

GROUP RESTRUCTURE – MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Throughout FY23 Raiz made announcements about Board and Managing Director changes.
Along with building capacity and capability across the team, a key change in our management structure saw

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal Activities
The Company provides financial services and products through its mobile first micro-investing platform which offers
its customers an easy way to regularly invest either small or large amounts of money using the Raiz mobile
application or through the Raiz website in Australia, Indonesia and Malaysia.
Significant Changes to Activities
There were no significant changes in the nature of the principal activities during the financial year.
Our Business Model and Objectives
The Group has a recurring revenue model, generating revenue from offering financial services and products to the
customers on the Raiz platform. Revenue is received monthly. Additionally, revenue is generated through highly
targeted advertising using the metrics stored in the Raiz database.
Raiz’s revenue falls under five main categories, and has two operating segments, which are further explained
below.
Maintenance fees
In Australia, Raiz charges a monthly maintenance fee of $3.50 ($4.50 from 1 August 2023) (including GST) to
active customers in Raiz Standard Portfolio with account values of less than $15,000 ($20,000 from 1 August 2023)
at the end of each month. The maintenance fee is direct debited from the customer’s funding account, rather than
from their Raiz Investment Account, which means that the maintenance fee does not impact upon the balance of
a customer’s Raiz Investment Account.
Raiz also offers Raiz Plus Portfolio (formerly known as Raiz Custom Portfolio) in Australia and Raiz Custom
Portfolio in Malaysia. In Australia customers pay a monthly maintenance fee of $4.50 ($5.50 from 1 August 2023)
(including GST) with account values of less than $20,000 ($25,000 from 1 August 2023) at the end of each month.
Customers in the Raiz Sapphire or Property Portfolio pay both a maintenance fee of $3.50 ($4.50 from 1 August
2023) (including GST) and an account fee (0.275% including GST per annum charged monthly, computed daily)
on any balance.
In Malaysia, Raiz charges a monthly maintenance fee of RM1.50 (including SST) to active customers with account
values of less than RM6,000 at the end of each month.
In Indonesia, Raiz charges a transaction fee of IDR3,600 on each transaction and there is also a “Bundling
Subscription” where users can choose a subscriptions payment method instead of a one-off transaction fee.
Account fees
If a Raiz Investment Account in Australia has a value equal to or greater than $15,000 ($20,000 from 1 August
2023) at the end of the month for Raiz Standard Portfolio or $20,000 ($25,000 from 1 August 2023) for Raiz Plus
Portfolio or SMSF Accounts, no maintenance fee will be payable for that month as an account fee will be charged.
For account balances equal to or greater than $15,000 ($20,000 from 1 August 2023) for Raiz Standard Portfolio
or $20,000 ($25,000 from 1 August 2023) for Raiz Plus Portfolio, Raiz applies an account fee of 0.275% (including
GST) per annum charged monthly, computed daily.
Customers in the Raiz Sapphire or Property Portfolio pay both a maintenance fee of $3.50 ($4.50 from 1 August
2023) (including GST) and an account fee (0.275% including GST per annum charged monthly, computed daily)
on any balance.
In Malaysia, for account balances equal to or greater than RM6,000, Raiz applies an account fee of 0.30%
(including SST) per annum charged monthly, computed daily.
In both Malaysia and Indonesia, Raiz received revenue from fees linked to funds under management, but these
were not material.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Netting
Where the acquisition or disposal of Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), Bitcoin (BTC) units, Property Fund units or
Listed Stocks on behalf of a Raiz customer in Australia does not require a transaction on-market, Raiz applies a
buy sell spread (at market or below), also known as netting. Raiz earns revenue from applying a buy sell spread
rather than paying away the spread on the market. By netting, Raiz can absorb brokerage fees rather than passing
this fee on to its customers.
Advertising
Raiz receives revenue from highly targeted advertising by utilising its aggregation of data from various sources
including rich data from the Raiz smartphone application and external providers. The revenue amount varies
depending on the partner and commercial arrangements.
Other
Raiz received income from other activities such as sub-leasing its office space, recovering expenses and
authorised representative fees from Instreet Investment Australia Limited for use of its AFSL held by the Group.
Raiz no longer receives income from these activities from 1 July 2023.
Operating Results
The consolidated loss attributable to owners of the parent entity amounted to $6,897,000 for the year ending 30
June 2023 (2022: $9,634,000 loss, a $2,737,000 or 28% decrease), after providing for income tax and eliminating
non-controlling interests. The consolidated loss attributable to owners of the parent entity after adding back the
amortisation and depreciation expenses and share option expenses amounted to $3,365,000 (2022: $5,902,000
loss, a $2,537,000 or 43% decrease).
The decrease in loss was driven by marketing expenses $4,685,000 (2022: $8,275,000, a $3,590,000 or 43%
decrease), and professional fees $1,918,000 (2022: $2,380,000, a $462,000 or 19% decrease). Employee benefits
expenses increased by $330,000 or 5% to $6,987,000 (2022: $6,657,000) and these included $681,000 termination
benefits payment to the former Managing Director/Joint Group CEO.
The ongoing review to streamline operations has delivered significant cost reductions. The benefits of these internal
restructures can be seen in second half of FY23. Loss from operations before income tax in second half of FY23
(2HFY23) decreased by $1,909,000 or 39% to $3,005,000 comparing to $4,914,000 in first half of FY23 (1HFY23).
Net cash used in operating activities also decreased by 83% to $431,000 in 2HFY23 compared to $2,569,000 in
1HFY23, a reduction of $2,138,000. At the same time, the Group has achieved a 27% reduction in total trade and
other payables (both current and non-current) from $5,025,000 at 30 June 2022 to $3,645,000 at 30 June 2023, a
reduction of $1,380,000.
Financial Position
The net assets of the consolidated Group are $38,582,000 as at 30 June 2023 (2022: $46,031,000).
The Group’s working capital after deducting regulatory capital, being current assets less both current liabilities and
regulatory capital, is $5,161,000 as at 30 June 2023 (2022: $13,444,000).
The Group is currently holding approximately $5,700,000 in regulatory capital, which is what the Group is required
to hold as a maximum.
The Directors believe the Group is in a strong and stable financial position to expand and grow its operations based
on the Company’s current business strategy.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Events after the Reporting Period
The Australian business released the Raiz Plus Product and also increased the fee for its members from 1 August

30 June 2023. An EGM has been held approving a debt to equity conversion, resulting in an increase in the equity
position of Raiz Invest Australia Limited, from 80% to 99% in the Joint Venture. This is part of the planned
restructure of the Indonesian Joint Venture. The next steps in the restructure are being progressed including
finalising the terms (including equity position) upon which a new local third party will participate in the Joint Venture.
Harvey Kalman has resigned as Non-Executive Director effective 31 August 2023.

could significantly affect the operations of the consolidated Group in future financial years.

Business Risks

and management committees to assist in managing the Company’s financial and operational risks. In summary
the Company has identified the following financial and operational risks as the highest risks that affect the Group:

damage to the brand;
•
failure to attract and retain customers;
•
loss of key vendors;
