There are several benefits to holding your savings and investments in one place:

  • You can see exactly how much you have
  • It's easier to monitor them so you stay on track
  • Less paperwork
  • Potentially save on fees

With us, you can make your own product and investment decisions. Or you can pay a one-off fee of no more than £500 for regulated financial advice.

You can choose from our range of ready-made portfolios. They're designed:

  • for people saving for their future
  • to suit different attitudes to market ups and downs

 

More information about our investment portfolios

This will depend on how much you're currently paying in fees, so it's important you know that before deciding to transfer your money across.

 

Look out for exit fees or other penalties that might apply if you move your money. And any investment benefits or bonuses you might lose out on. That's because these could significantly reduce the value of your pension pot. Benefits might include:

  • market value adjustments/reductions
  • guarantees on annuity rates
  • growth bonuses
  • minimum retirement income
  • discretionary bonus rates
  • potential demutualisation bonus

 

The existence of such safeguards or benefits will depend on the type of investment/ pension you have.

 

There's a total annual charge of up to 0.75% of the amount you invest. This is made up of:

  • Investment service fee of 0.52% for providing ongoing support in relation to your investment portfolio. 
  • Platform fee of 0.13% for running the online services that hold your investments.  
  • Fund charge of up to 0.10% for the operation of each of the funds within your investment portfolio.

There will be further transaction costs within the underlying funds. If you would like to take financial advice, we charge an advice fee of 0.75%, to a maximum of £500.

 

If you transfer an ISA or a pension from a previous tax year it won't count towards either your annual ISA allowance or annual pensions allowance. But any money you've paid in this tax year will count. Tax rules are set by the Government, and may change in the future.

No, your existing provider will need to sell your investments and then transfer the cash to us. We'll then reinvest it in your choice of portfolio. 

 

This does mean that your money will be held in cash for a few days. Depending on market movements, the cost of investing in the new funds will have changed up or down during this time.

 

How long this takes depends partly on the provider you’re transferring from. Once Hubwise receive your money, they'll take up to five working days to invest it. So if it takes your provider five working days to sell your investments and transfer the cash, your money will not be invested for up to 10 working days in total.
