Smart Portfolios are innovative, long-term investment portfolios, curated by eToro analysts. Each with its own unique investment strategy, Smart Portfolios are a convenient and diversified way to access major market trends shaping our world today, without paying portfolio management fees.
A well-diversified portfolio is one of the best risk management strategies out there. Although assets have a common theme, they can span varied sub-sectors, regions, and even asset classes.
Using in-depth research and analysis, we choose companies and assets from around the world that are proven leaders and have the best potential for a buy-and-hold approach based on current data.
eToro’s Smart Portfolios are created using the most cutting-edge technology and advanced data, and are designed to adapt as market conditions change.
We want these innovative products to be accessible to any level of investor, as well as effective as a diverse bundle of assets. That’s why we’ve priced them starting at only $500 for the initial investment.
When assets that are eligible for dividend payments are held via a Smart Portfolio, these dividends are added to the portfolio’s cash balance. When the portfolio is rebalanced, these sums are reinvested in the portfolio’s holdings.

eToro Portfolios (Smart Portfolios) are investment vehicles that bundle together a collection of financial assets, based on a theme and each with its own unique strategy. The assets to be included are selected and updated according to the portfolio’s strategy, which can be viewed on the stats tab of each portfolio’s asset page.
Most Portfolios are created and managed by the eToro Investment Team. Each portfolio is built with a lot of thought and consideration, taking into account factors such as balance, exposure, potential yield, risk and more. In addition, Partner Portfolios are created and managed by eToro’s partners, which include some of the most sophisticated financial companies and innovative startups in Fintech.
eToro’s Smart Portfolios employ a dynamic approach to investing, which is a combination of both. On the one hand, Smart Portfolios are not updated on a daily basis — in this sense, this is closer to the passive approach. Yet, more like the active approach, they are regularly rebalanced and fine-tuned by the eToro investment team.
To maintain the asset allocation ratio according to the Smart Portfolio’s strategy, portfolios are rebalanced periodically. Rebalancing is a means of ensuring that each Portfolio is consistently aligned to its methodology to match the original asset allocation plan and optimised for maximum results. Assets that perform well this year aren’t guaranteed to perform well next year – therefore, this re-alignment is necessary to maintain the portfolio’s overall growth.
However, rebalancing periods differ from portfolio to portfolio. Therefore, we suggest reading the information on each portfolio’s page to understand when, and using which criteria, it is rebalanced.
eToro’s Portfolios contain various financial assets, each of which is allocated a specific proportion of the overall investment. An investment of at least $500 ensures that there are enough funds to open all of the positions needed for the investment.
