Who we are
We’re Bestinvest, and for over 35 years we’ve been championing investors who manage their own money.
The value of your investments and the income from them may go down as well as up, and you could get back less than you invested.
You can now trade US shares online for free
Helping people invest since 1986
We’ve been making investing affordable and accessible from the day we launched.
We’ve been innovating ever since. Today we offer a wide range of investments, free expert coaching, smart planning tools and competitive pricing. We have more to offer than many leading investment platforms or robo-advisors.
So, whether you’re saving for your retirement or want to secure your children’s future, we can help you plan and track your investments, and help you go on to achieve what matters most to you.
Backed by nearly 200 years of experience
We’re backed by the resources of our parent company, Evelyn Partners. It’s one of the UK’s largest wealth management firms with nearly 200 years of experience, and has proven strengths in financial planning, investing and advice.
Award-winning customer service
We won Best Customer Service at the 2021 Shares Awards, which are run by Shares Magazine. We’re incredibly proud to have received this award, because we know how a superior service can make a massive difference.
