Before you start

You're applying for a Share Dealing Account
Before you start

Who can open an account?

  • You'll need to be at least 18 years old
  • You must be a resident in the UK, Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man
  • You must not be a US citizen or taxpayer

Things you need to know

  • We can't give you advice, so you'll need to be happy to make your own investment decisions.
  • The value of investments can go down as well as up, so you could get back less than you invest.
  • If you're not sure about investing, speak to an independent adviser. There will normally be a charge for any advice.
  • We don't pay interest on any cash held in this account - our Charges page has more details.
