Does it cost to transfer?

No. We don’t charge you any transfer fees if you decide to join us, or if you decide to leave. However, your current provider may charge you, so please check before you start your transfer.

How long does it take to transfer?

Most transfers can be completed electronically. Electronic transfers for cash and UK shares usually take around 10 working days to complete. Fund and international shares can take longer.

If your current broker is unable to transfer electronically it can take around 6 weeks for cash and UK shares. Fund and international shares can take up to 10 weeks.

Are you transferring funds to us?

If you’re transferring funds to us from another broker we might hold a different fund class than the one you hold now. This means we may need to convert your fund into a class that can be transferred, which may be more expensive or could be cheaper. We do this to make sure your fund does not have to be sold as part of the transfer. Once the transfer is complete, we’ll make sure that you hold the cheapest fund class we have available for investment.

The value of an investment can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you invest. If you are not sure about investing, seek independent advice. Tax treatment depends on personal circumstances and may be subject to change.
