Gilty pleasures

Discover why buying fixed interest assets direct could make you and your clients happier than just relying on funds to provide exposure.

Why not buy your fixed interest assets direct?

Now that gilts are once again offering yields to smile about, we’ve seen an increase in interest from adviser firms wanting to hold them in GIAs.

Of course, fixed interest assets are widely available via any number of passive and active funds, but the real value may lie in buying them directly – so it’s good to know that you can easily deal in both bonds and gilts through our Funds & Shares Service. Online dealing isn’t possible for these assets, but we’ll only charge £3.95 to buy or sell them over the phone.

Accessing good returns from gilts isn’t necessarily a straightforward process. To help you understand the issues and formulate a plan to make the most of the yields available, we’ve brought together some useful articles that should help to guide your thinking.
