Help your money work harder
Investing can help your money work harder. However, there is greater risk in investing compared to cash savings. Savings accounts offer steady growth and are often quickly accessible. You should look to keep enough money in them for emergencies and short-term expenses before thinking about investing.
Complete flexibility
Our Share Dealing Account gives you complete flexibility to pick the investments that are right for you. You can get started with a regular investment from just £20 each month or invest a lump sum in a wide range of investment types. Read more about our investment options.
