    Amount invested and frequency of trades matters as it can dictate whether you're best off going with a fixed fee or percentage based platform.

    So, roughly how much and roughly how often? :)

    Search Snowman's spreadsheet on this forum, the thread with his broker comparison was updated in the last couple of days.

    You could cross reference it with the link provided in post #4 of your other thread. With respect, there comes a point where you should try to figure this sort of thing out yourself

    I'm finding it unbelievable just how difficult it appears to be to invest in Lindsell Train Global via most of the online platforms. Keep hoping someone will come up with a broker that I have missed but that is looking unlikely.

    That link may not be a definitive list, II for example is not included there but I understand they do carry the LT Global fund.

    It's actually really easy, just use a normal broker.

    On that link to your other thread you were pointed to
    http://www.comparefundplatforms.com/
    https://monevator.com/compare-uk-cheapest-online-brokers/
    I also mentioned the spreadsheet and thread created by forum user Snowman which you could look at

    Literally all of those three sources include interactive investor.

    Most online fund platforms carry the LT Global fund, while a minority don't.

    If you look at online stockbrokers which don't offer a platform to invest in open-ended funds, you won't find it.

    FWIW, I use Youinvest and they're fine. I don't have the LT Global fund myself, but could buy it if I wanted. I was previously with ii (when branded as TD Direct) and they also had it. My mother has it via HL.

    You mean use a fund platform. A stockbroker (who places orders for you to buy and sell on a stock exchange) will not be able to help, because the LT Global fund is not listed on any stock exchange. What you need is a business that has a fund platform / fund supermarket service for distributing open-ended funds like LT's: accepting subscription and redemption requests from customers.

    Those businesses generally also offer stockbroker services too, but you don't need that element of the service, because LT Global is not trading on a stock exchange and doesn't need anyone to 'broker' a deal between buyer and seller.

    Thank you for the explanation @bowlhead99, I can see where I have been looking at this wrongly.
