You can invest a massive £20,000 into an ISA each tax year meaning they’re a great way to build up funds for your future, whatever you want yours to look like. They’re tax free too, which means more money for you.

Invest regularly

This one couldn’t be easier. As well as being convenient, investing monthly can smooth out the highs and lows of the markets. Just like you pay your bills by direct debit, you can get into the habit of paying yourself too. If you’ve got an account with Bestinvest already, just log in to set up monthly savings.

If you don’t have an account yet, it’s quick and easy to set one up – and we’d love to have you.

SIPPs are not suitable for everyone. If you don’t want to invest across different asset classes or don’t think you will make use of the investment choices that SIPPs give you then a SIPP might not be right for you.
