  • Makes sense.
    Specifically the Vanguard Global All Cap index fund.
    I started a SIPP with them last year which has done well percentage wise albeit only a small amount, and the time frame being 30+ years.

    I have some savings just sitting in a cash isa which feels safe but doesn’t return much.
    I’m thinking about moving them into a Vanguard isa with this same fund.
    I might use this money within the next few years towards a deposit with partner. A percentage increase would be really useful, but at the same time I’d be really gutted if it went down.

  • How much are your fees for that SIPP? It's direct with Vanguard?

    I'm paying £20 for mine with interactive and wonder if there's better options going direct with some funds.

  • Vanguard were the cheapest around for people starting SIPP’s when I opened it last year.

    Somewhat controversially they are upping the fees later this month in a way that makes it more expensive for people with less than ~32k. Still cheap above that.

    There are a couple of platforms who are offering zero fees in a bid to win over people leaving vanguard. I imagine those platforms won’t stay at zero for ever, but could be good for a bit. Invest Engine is one.

    I’m gonna stick with Vanguard for now just for ease and reliability. Sure fees have gone up for my small pot, but I think it’s only £50 ish a year total. Set and forget is better for me than chasing the lowest fees, and the account has done well over the past year
