Index-tracking experts.

We have almost 20 years' experience in UK index-tracking following the launch of our UK 100 Index Trust in May 1993. The fund invests in some of the biggest names in the stock market, and tracks the performance of the FTSE 100 Index. Our UK 100 Index Trust has over £200 million invested - as at 31 December 2011.

  • Includes blue-chip companies in technology, financial services, pharmaceuticals and manufacturing.
  • Provides you with exposure to the UK stock market without the risks of individual stock selection.
  • As the sixth largest global economy, the UK is an established market. (Source: International Monetary Fund October 2010).

Why the UK 100 Index Tracker?

Go for good long-term growth potential.

  • Invest at any time, whether markets are up or down. Investing when the FTSE is low could give your investment better long-term potential.
  • Invest up to £11,280 tax-efficiently in an ISA or an unlimited amount in a unit trust.
  • Minimum investment  £500 as a lump sum, or £50 a month.
  • No initial charge or withdrawal fee: it’s low cost, easy to set up and more of your money remains invested.
