Your fees will be 0.55% of your investment or less
We do not charge an initial, also known as an 'upfront fee', when you invest with us. We charge fees for managing your investments totalling 0.55% these consist of a platform fee of 0.15% and a fund management fee of 0.40%.

There are also costs for buying and selling within your investment - these are called transaction costs. Based on actual past costs, the highest costs for any of the available funds will be 0.07% of the value of the fund each year. These costs will be taken directly from the fund.
Platform fee
The maximum you’ll pay is 0.15%. That’s 15p for every £100 of your investments.

We tier the platform fee

We keep our fund fee low
Low fees means you keep more of what your investment makes.
- 0.30% is for the management of the fund.
- 0.10% or less is for the underlying investments’ fees. Our funds invest in a spread of different funds – also known as a fund of funds. Those funds have fees that we pay. If those fees are less than 0.10% then your fees will be lower. If those fees are higher than 0.10%, then you will not pay anything more.
