Skandia’s approach to investing

Investing on our platform – Skandia Investment Solutions

Skandia Investment Solutions is an innovative place for you to build, manage and monitor your medium- to long-term investments. It gives you access to a wide choice of funds and a range of tax-efficient ways to hold them in a single place – known as an investment platform.

What is an investment platform?

The word ‘platform’ is used to describe a place where a variety of different investment related processes and activities can be conveniently carried out. 

Just as mobile technology is changing the way we interact with the world, Skandia Investment Solutions provides a fresh approach to handling your investments. See how it works with this two minute video.

 

A better way to plan your financial future

Our platform offers a fresh approach to financial services. Rather than simply offering separate products, such as pensions, ISAs, and life assurance, the Skandia Investment Solutions platform brings personal investing right up-to-date. It gives you and your adviser a single, transparent overview of your financial position. This makes it much easier for you to make well-informed investment decisions and plan your financial future.

So what are the benefits of using an investment platform?

Fantasy Fund Investor

We’ve teamed up with the Telegraph newspaper to create a new and exciting way to experience the world of investing. Fantasy Fund Investor works in a similar way to Skandia Investment Solutions and by playing the game you can experience what it’s like building an investment portfolio on Skandia’s platform.

The game runs from July 2012 to May 2013 and involves investing an imaginary £100,000 in a range of funds, using a football management concept.
