Is investing for you?

You can start from just £20 a month with our free regular investment plan. Yes, there are risks, so make sure you do your homework.

Due to the risks involved with investing, you should only invest if you have enough cash savings. Having savings is essential to make sure you can cover any expenses or emergencies without having to prematurely sell any of your investments.

If you’re not sure about investing, seek financial advice and keep reviewing your goals. Investing is for the medium to long term, at least 5-10 years.

Please remember that the value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you invest. Invested money, historically, has earned a higher level of return than savings but nothing is guaranteed.
