You put £100k in a single fund with one of the worst fund houses there is? - ok, you get that hint
There is nothing wrong with investing and looking long term the corp bond market has potential. However, using a tied sales force for that sort of money is wasteful. You are not getting investment advice and you need that with 100k. Just plonking it in one fund means you have all your eggs in one basket.
You need to have a proper discussion with a proper investment adviser to ascertain your risk profile, timescales and aims and objectives suit and then decide what the way forward is.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
