Deciding where to invest

For some investors nothing beats the thrill of choosing their own stocks and shares. Others prefer to entrust the choice of shares to experts and choose funds. With the Vantage SIPP you can invest with the UK's finest fund managers. The choice of over 2,000 funds can at times be a little daunting but we help you in many ways to identify the funds that show the potential to perform well.

The Wealth 150 - A list of approximately 150 of our favourite funds in each sector, hand-picked and updated by our investment team. Whether you’re short of time or simply unsure where to start, the Wealth 150 is a great way to find some funds our investment team think show potential and start building your portfolio. You can also stay up to date by viewing all the latest additions and removals to the list.

Latest investment ideas - If 150 funds is still a little too much to choose from, you’ll find the Latest Investment Ideas section of our website a great help. Updated regularly, it contains just a handful of the funds our investment team have recently researched.

Get a little more help from the experts - Over the last few years multi-manager funds have become an increasingly popular way to invest. They offer you the chance to put an expert in charge of choosing from the finest fund managers and bringing them together for you in a single, convenient managed fund. More about the Hargreaves Lansdown Multi-Manager Funds.

If you have portfolios worth more than £100,000, our competitive rate of interest - As well as funds and shares, you can also hold cash within your Vantage SIPP. You’ll receive a competitive rate of interest and is a useful option if you want to make a deposit, then invest as the opportunities arise. It also gives you the flexibility to sell a fund and wait before reinvesting the proceeds.

Complex Products

If you wish to purchase a complex product, such as a Hedge fund, unregulated fund, or equity or covered warrants, you will be required to complete a complex products risk warning notice and questionnaire and return a hard copy to us by post before dealing. If this applies to a product you wish to purchase, please call us on 0117 9809800 and we will send you a notice to complete. Once received, we will contact you to confirm your account has been marked to permit dealing in complex products.
