Having all your accounts together in one place for the complete picture, makes it easier for you to monitor and manage your overall investment portfolio. And the 'Nominee account' structure enables us to carry out your instructions with minimum fuss and maximum efficiency - whilst you remain the beneficial owner.

Our account selector can help you choose which account might suit you best, but if you're not sure which account is most appropriate we recommend you consult a financial adviser. Do remember that the price and value of investments and the income from them fluctuates, so you may not get back the amount you originally invested. Before applying for your account please read our Investment Risk Warning and other Important information.
