Fund Literature

Our Funds platform gives you ready access to a wide range of active and passive funds, all with no purchase commission (sales are charged at our normal dealing commission rate). What's more. Selftrade passes on, in full, any discount we are able to negotiate on the Fund Manager's standard initial charge. We do receive a small percentage of trail commission which covers the costs associated with setting the funds up on our platform and which also allows us to waive the normal dealing fee on purchases.

Depending on the fund provider, you'll find growth, income, regional, sector-focused, ethical and multi-manager funds, whilst benefiting from discounts on initial charges.

Unit trusts, like shares, are subject to a spread between the bid and offer prices, whereas OEICs are single-priced. Funds are dealt on a forward pricing basis, so the prices at which orders will be executed cannot be known in advance. They are also subject to initial and annual management charges and in certain circumstances may be subject to a dilution levy.

Please bear in mind that:
  • You should always read the Prospectus and understand the nature of the investment you plan to make. Be aware that some may use derivatives which carry a high risk to your capital. We will ask you to confirm that you have received the Simplified Prospectus or Key Investor Information Document, as appropriate, and will be unable to accept your purchase instruction without this confirmation.
