Your options

You may want to consider investing directly into a unit trust if you have already used up your ISA allowance for this tax year. Although unit trusts do not offer the same tax advantages as ISAs, there are no investment limits although you can only invest up to £50,000 online.

Legal & General offers a wide range of low cost index-tracking unit trusts to choose from.

• You can choose to invest in geographic regions. For example: the UK, Europe, US, Pacific or Japan.
• You can choose to follow the performance of a single market, such as technology or health and pharmaceuticals.
• Or you can simply invest across some of the largest companies in the world (the Global 100 Index Trust).
• The index-tracking unit trust product table clearly lists the management charges for these unit trusts.
• See how each of our index-tracking unit trusts has performed for the last five years using the fund performance table.
