Hi,

for the last 12 years ive had a PEP as it was then (now ISA) with Invesco. Did some regular savings into it and stopped back in '02 with £9600, now looks to have £13k. The fund is International Equity (Acc). Has this performed well, im not really blown away...

I am considering moving some cash from a Sainsburys Bank saver @ 3.2% into this fund or start another with a long term view. Im paying off my mortgage nicely with overpayments but dont want to get too excited paying it off and have none invested elsewhere. Any advice?

I have lots of questions in general, maybe a session with an IFA. Any tips on finding one, word of mouth is good but dont really get anywhere asking around a work.

Thanks
