Investment options

When you invest you'll have two choices on how to hold your investment. Whichever option you choose you'll still need to choose from one of the 5 ready made funds, you can't select individual stocks and shares to invest in.

Stocks and Shares ISA

Investments held in a Stocks and Shares ISA means you don’t need to pay Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax on any investment growth. But there’s a limit on what you can invest in ISAs in any given tax year, for the current tax year it's £20,000 (this is the total for both Cash ISAs and Stocks and Shares ISAs). 

General Investment Account

There’s no upper limit to the amount you can invest in a General Investment Account. However Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax may be payable.

You can hold investments in a Stocks and Shares ISA and a General Investment Account. 

What is your investment personality?

Just like you, each has its own characteristics. So if one of them sounds familiar, it might be the investment that will suit you best. Find out about our 5 funds in more detail

Cautious and Careful

This is Personal Portfolio 1 Fund and it’s the lowest-risk fund we offer. Think of it as swimming in the shallow end with the peace of mind of being able to stand up.

Steady and Sound

This is Personal Portfolio 2 Fund and it's the low to medium risk fund. Think of it as venturing into the deep end of the pool but you know you can touch the side at any time.

Balanced

This is Personal Portfolio 3 Fund which is the medium risk fund. This is like the first dip in a lake. It may be colder and get your heart rate going but there should be some beautiful views.

Optimistic

Optimistic and Assured

This is Personal Portfolio 4 Fund, which is the medium to high risk fund. Think of this as swimming out a little further to explore a reef. There are some beautiful things to see but it can be unpredictable.
