How retail investors can access the CleverMPS

The CleverMPS is available exclusively via an investment intermediary or financial adviser. This means that a retail investor cannot access our managed portfolios without first getting the right advice.

What is a retail investor? Essentially, it is a non-professional who invests their own money (as opposed to a professional who is qualified to invest on behalf of others).

If you are a ‘retail investor’ interested in the CleverMPS, ask your financial adviser to speak to us today or email us and we’ll try to put you in touch with someone local to you.

WHY USE A FINANCIAL ADVISER?

Why some investors use an intermediary

When you invest via a professional intermediary, like a wealth manager or financial adviser, they will use their skills, qualifications, and experience to assess your suitability for a given investment opportunity. They’ll judge suitability based on factors like your investment aims and attitude to risk, your age, and when you plan to retire).

Of course, there will be fees for using an intermediary, and there’s a variety of investment solutions which do not require investors to use one. You must decide which is the best approach for you.

DATA PROTECTION AND SECURITY

Be aware of investment and pension scams

Security is an essential part of our services. We keep all CleverMPS accounts secure so that only your adviser and designated third parties (like us or the discretionary fund manager, Marlborough) are authorised to have access.

Financial safety goes beyond our services though, and there is a lot you can do to avoid falling victim to financial scams and fraud. A great place to start is with the free ‘Be a ScamSmart Investor’ advice and resources on the FCA website.

Risk Warnings.

Capital is at risk. The value and income from investments can go down as well as up and are not guaranteed. An investor may get back significantly less than they invest. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current or future performance and should not be the sole factor considered when selecting portfolios. Investments may include emerging market, smaller company and commodity funds which may be higher risk than other asset classes. Investments in fixed interest funds are subject to market and credit risk and will be impacted by changes in interest rates. Changes in exchange rates may affect the value of the underlying investments. Investments in Property funds carry specific risks relating to liquidity. Property funds can go through periods, known as ‘gating’, when it may not be possible to trade in or out of the funds and to access your money during such periods. The portfolios may invest a large part of their assets in funds for which investment decisions are made independently of the portfolios. If these investment managers perform poorly, the value of the portfolios is likely to be adversely affected. Investment in funds may also lead to additional fees arising from holding these funds.
