What are people doing right now?
Hi all, Quick sense check. Currently have £8,500 uninvested cash in a JISA for my 3 year old - so minimum of 15 years until it would be accessed. The remainder of the JISA has been invested in a combination of LS100 and an Invesco all world tracker. Should I just ignore the noise and get the £8500 into the funds now? I'm…

Following Passive Investing
I followed a link given for the Monevator site and came across an article about Passive Investing. I wanted to find out more about this by looking at the ETF's they talked about. When I went to a couple of the platforms I've seen mentioned in this forum, I couldn't see those ETF's. At first I thought that was because I was…

MSE News: Government-backed NS&I's new fixed-rate savings pay up to 4.5% interest
NS&I has launched new fixed-rate savings accounts that let you lock in good rates for one to five years with total safety, as NS&I is backed by the Treasury.

Aegon - Online Security Issue?
I’d appreciate views and opinions about a disused financial account please… I once held a Stocks & Shares ISA with Aegon/Cofunds. In 2019, I transferred all funds (and associated cash) to another provider and requested Aegon close the account. Long story short – as of today, I can still login to the online account where…

Spreading investments between platforms
I have what is to me a significant proportion of investments on a single platform all invested in ETF's to take advantage of capped platform fees (excluding the JISA which is in an OEIC fund). SIPP is 100% equities (same for work pension and LISA) and ISA is around 75/25 equities/bonds. I held SGLN for a year and a bit…

Cahoot Sunny Day Saver Question
Hi, Re Cahoot Sunny Day Saver I might be over thinking but, the wording on the website doesn't seem very clear to me. £1 - £3,000 pays 5% interest £3000+ pays no interest I'm guessing that this means that I will get 5% interest on the £3,000 but no interest on the bit that is over £3,000 (Not NO interest on everything…
