When buying into a fund, many fund managers will charge what’s called an ‘Initial Charge’ for joining their fund. This charge will be a percentage of the total amount you invest in that particular fund. This amount will be deducted from your initial investment. All fund managers will also charge an ‘Annual Management Charge’ which is deducted from the value of the fund on an annual basis. The initial charges and annual management charge for holding your new investment within a stocks and shares ISA can be found in the list of funds next to the fund name.
The good news...
smile invest has negotiated special deals on almost all our funds, especially when you invest within a stocks and shares ISA. This means that many initial charges have been heavily discounted. Details of all the discounts can be found in the list of funds next to the fund name.
Even better news...

A specially reduced initial charge of 0.25% is available on many funds (or 0% should the fund have no initial charge anyway).

When you buy a fund you will pay an initial charge to Fidelity, which varies from fund to fund. smile invest receives a % commission from Fidelity (which again varies) on all initial charges for funds bought through smile invest funds supermarket. For example, if smile invest receives 0.5% commission on X fund, and you invested £1000 in X fund, Fidelity will pay smile invest £5 (.5% x £1000). back to top
