Popular Growth Fund Choices

Oliver Roylance-Smith
“With a huge diversity of growth fund choices, it can be helpful to see what others are choosing. We monitor choices from Cofunds, which shows what customers are buying directly and what they are being advised to buy. With growth fund choices, the perspective tends to be long term (5 years+) which is worth bearing in mind. If this table is similar to our growth funds selection table, it may be that there is a particularly strong research case for certain fund types or brands. If you're ready to invest, you can apply online or receive an application pack by post.”
