    Beers for the OP £100 between me and Mrs C plus 2% return on the "very aggressive investment"

    Will be interesting to see how they perform v the market over the next 5 months.

    Has anyone noticed how a free £50 can lift your spirits for 24 hours but you remain totally desensitised to your long term S&S investments going up and down by several £k per day?

    Just for interest, is anyone thinking of staying invested with Wahed if they perform well? By well I mean 5% + after 6 months.

    But that would have to be performing “well” relative to the market. If other comparable investments go up 7%, then your 5% isn’t so good.

    Plus I’m assuming most on here just have the £100 invested with them. £100 isn’t going to do much long term. You’d probably want to make it a much bigger part of your portfolio (assuming there are more investments to your portfolio) to make it worthwhile.

    It might be worthwhile to stay though. Charges are high from what I remember though, and I prefer my other investment mixes I think.

    It's not worth hanging on to a £100 (+5%) investment, and I'm not planning to invest any more in a niche product.

    In an aggressive portfolio I find that I have just £10 in emerging markets, as a fraction of an ETF. Not something I would normally consider.

    £50 cash back on a £100 stake is worth a punt. Thanks Karlie

    Same here £50 landed in my Bank AC for a very little work. :D:D:D

    This is what investment should look like for MSEr
    Thanks to karlie88 for bring this to the MSEr attention.
    Does anyone have any idea when is the earliest date to close the acdount ? 3 months or 6 months from the account opening ??

    Hello again all,
    I have received 2 emails from Wahed, dated 02/08/2019. I have not fully read them as of now, but it appears to be changes to t&c's.
    Regards
