If you currently hold existing investments in a Selected Investment Funds account, there are a number of options available to you:
*All additional investments will only be made into clean share classes where available.
**The external funds must be available within the Selected Investment Funds platform.
If you would like to make additional investments into fund(s) within your Selected Investment Funds account, these will be invested in to clean share classes and the account fee will apply.
You can switch between funds either within each account or between accounts at any time. Your investment will be switched by selling shares in your chosen fund(s) and using the cash proceeds to buy shares in the new fund(s). Switching between funds means that your investment can be out of the market for up to four business days. While your investment is out of the market you should be aware that the market may move up or down, resulting in potential loss of growth and/or income.
Switching between funds in the Selected Investment Funds Plan will mean that any gains made on the sale of shares will need to be considered when calculating any liability to UK Capital Gains Tax.
You can transfer your existing funds that you hold with other companies to us provided these funds are available within the Selected Investment Funds platform.
Using a process known as re-registration, your funds can be transferred into a Selected Investment Funds Plan, or into a Selected Investment Funds ISA if you hold funds within an ISA, without first selling your holdings. Your existing share class holdings will be retained where you transfer in this way. As your shares are not sold, they are not subject to any potential loss of growth and/or income resulting from being out of the market or any potential liability to UK Capital Gains Tax.
We cannot accept re-registration of funds held in legacy share classes.
Your existing funds can be transferred to another plan and/or ISA Manager (as applicable) without selling your holdings provided that your new manager agrees to the transfer. To transfer your funds you should contact your new manager and they will initiate the transfer with us.

All investments carry some risk. The value of investments (and any income received from them) can fall as well as rise and you may not get back what you invested. For some investments this can also happen as a result of exchange rate fluctuations as shares and funds may have an exposure to overseas markets.
Most investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment, meaning you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.
The value of any tax benefits described depends on your individual circumstances. Tax rules may change in the future.
*Lines are open from 8am - 6pm Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).
