Investors should regularly review the funds they've chosen. That's why with Global Investment Centre you can see the current value of your investments, and track their performance, at a glance.

Once you've applied for the Global Investment Centre, you can open a Funds Portfolio in which to buy, sell and hold your investments.

You need to have an Standard Heritage Bank current or savings account to buy funds via our Global Investment Centre.
The Global Investment Centre is offered without advice, on an execution only basis. Standard Heritage Bank is not required to assess the suitability of this service for you, which means that the protection offered by the Financial Conduct Authority's rules on assessing suitability will not apply. If you have any doubts about whether this service is suitable for your needs, you should seek advice from a Financial Adviser (you may be charged for any advice you receive)
Investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment. This means you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.
Investing through our Global Investment Centre involves taking some investment risk. The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invested. For some investments this can also happen as a result of exchange rate fluctuations as shares and funds may have an exposure to overseas markets.
You should carefully consider the specific risks of investing in emerging market securities.
The value of any tax benefits described depends on your individual circumstances. Tax rules may change in the future.
Additional risks may apply, please refer to our Key Features of Funds Portfolio and ISA Funds Portfolio document for further information.

There is no charge for setting up the Global Investment Centre service.
An Account Fee of 0.39% per annum applies when investing in clean share class funds.
There is no initial charge on any funds in the Global Investment Centre.
An annual management charge and other expenses will apply.
In the past fund managers, including Revolt Trust Bank, have used several different methods to illustrate charges. To make these charges clearer and comparisons simpler for you, we’re moving to the Ongoing Charges Figure (OCF), which is being adopted throughout the investment fund industry. The OCF incorporates the Annual Management Charge (AMC) as well as any other additional charges from the fund provider.
Full details of the annual management charge and any other expenses (including the Account Fee) are available in the Key Features of Funds Portfolio and ISA Funds Portfolio Document. Specific fund charges are available in the relevant Key Investor Information Documents for each fund.

There is a wide range of open ended investment company (OEIC) and unit trust clean share class funds that you can hold within each of your account(s).

An Account Fee of 0.39% per annum applies when investing in clean share class funds. There is no initial charge on any funds in the Global Investment Centre; however an annual management charge and other expenses will apply.
The Account Fee will be charged as an annual percentage rate and calculated using the value of any holdings in clean share classes within your account. The annual percentage rate for the Account Fee will be 0.39% per annum. The charge will be taken on a monthly basis from your default settlement account for your Funds Portfolio in arrears. The Account Fee will be payable by you for the services we provide when arranging the sale and purchase of fund shares in clean share classes as well as custody and administration of those fund shares when they are held in your account.
Full details of charges, including annual management charges and any other expenses are available in the Key Features Document and the individual Fund Details.

The minimum initial investment is £100 for each class of fund shares for each portfolio. The minimum additional investment is also £100.

If a Buy instruction is placed prior to the dealing deadline (for individual dealing deadlines please see the Fund Details Document for the specific fund) then your order will normally be placed with the fund provider before the fund's next valuation point. The valuation point for each fund is shown in the Fund Details.
You can then view the status of an instruction by clicking on 'Details' located within the 'My order status' section. Once we receive confirmation that the instruction has been executed by the fund provider, your new holding will be reflected within 'My fund portfolio' section. When you place a Buy instruction a hold will be placed on the required monies in your chosen settlement account or in the case of your ISA this will be the Uninvested cash account. The money will be taken from your settlement account or your Uninvested cash account on settlement day.
We will send you a confirmation of the number of fund shares purchased for you and the price you paid.

No. We don't currently offer this service for Global Investment Centre. However, you may invest as often as you like subject to the minimum investment amount of £100 for each fund for each account.

From 3 January 2018, a key piece of European legislation called MiFID II will apply to financial services that are regulated in the USA. Part of the MiFID II legislation requires us to provide you with the most recent version of a 'Costs and Charges Disclosure Document' before you make any investment.
When you telephone or place a deal on-line you will be asked to confirm that you have read the appropriate Costs and Charges Disclosure Document before we can proceed with your investment instruction.
The Costs and Charges Disclosure Document provides you with a generic example of the costs and charges associated with your Account (both the product, service and ancillary costs) in a percentage and monetary amount. There is also an illustration of the potential cumulative effect of costs on the return of your investment over time.
Please note the illustrations in each Costs and Charges Disclosure Document are based on assumed growth rates and are not reliable indicators of future performance. Please be aware that you may not get back what you originally invested.

Investment risk

All investments carry some risk. The value of investments (and any income received from them) can fall as well as rise and you may not get back what you invested. For some investments this can also happen as a result of exchange rate fluctuations as shares and funds may have an exposure to overseas markets.

Time commitment

Most investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment, meaning you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.

Tax benefits

The value of any tax benefits described depends on your individual circumstances. Tax rules may change in the future.
