We have partnered with Square Mile, the independent investment research business, to provide a list of three starter funds.
You can choose a fund based on asset type, geography or strategic aim, complete with ESG ratings. Each fund also sets out its desired outcome so you can see at a glance if the focus is growth, income or preservation.?
For investors who are building up their savings
For investors who are seeking income from their investments
For investors not aiming for capital growth, however this does not guarantee that investments won't go down.
The value of investments can fall as well as rise and any income from them is not guaranteed and you may get back less than you invested. Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
EQi does not provide investment advice. If you are in any doubt as to the risk or suitability of an investment or product you should seek advice from an independent financial adviser.
The extent and value of any ISA tax advantages or benefits will vary according to the individual's circumstances. The levels and bases of taxation may also change.
Funds are given a grading between 0-3 for their environmental, social and governance credentials
?ESG has not been a consideration in this fund's investment process
?ESG factors may be considered
?ESG factors are actively considered
?ESG is fully integrated and instrumental
These fund selections are provided to EQi by Square Mile Investment Consulting Research Limited, an independent research firm.
EQi does not receive a fee or commission should you invest in any of the funds, and neither does Square Mile.
