Buying UK gilts
We provide access to a range of UK gilts, all available through the Funds & Shares Service.
Why not buy your fixed-interest assets direct?
We’re seeing a lot more interest in holding gilts now that they offer worthwhile yields again. You can buy them through the Funds & Shares Service, both online and over the phone. Either way, you’ll have the flexibility to keep them until maturity, or sell them on the secondary market.
