I have a couple of DC pension pots built up from time in two different jobs with Aviva and L&G
The choice of funds is pretty limited and I would like the option to apportion funds to individual stock picks
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on the most economic platforms with which to do this
thanks

Have a look at the broker comparison here it will depend on the total value and how many trades you want to do, some charge different fees for stocks (and ETF’s) versus funds. https://monevator.com/compare-uk-cheapest-online-brokers/0

A mainstream SIPP (HL, II, AJBell etc) will allow you to hold and trade individual shares. Which is cheapest depends on the size of your pot.HCIMbtw said:I have a couple of DC pension pots built up from time in two different jobs with Aviva and L&G

But if you want a recommendation mine is that you don't if you are talking about a significant % of your pension savings. There may be a limited choice of funds in an old employer pension scheme but 1000s are available from a SIPP.
