An Investment Account lets you invest in managed funds, UK stocks and shares, deposits, gilts, and exchange traded funds (ETFs), so you can create an investment portfolio that’s right for you.
There is no annual subscription limit, so if you have already used your full ISA allowance, our investment accounts give you another way to invest.
