Popular SIPP investments

Diversification

ETFs and Mutual funds can be a key component of SIPPs. 

For example, ETFs track a large set of stocks, so are a simple way to diversify your portfolio. ETFs are often designed to track the market, making them a good bet for a long-term investment.‍

Mutual funds can also provide diversification, reducing the impact that a single underperforming security can have on your overall portfolio.

Global

When it comes to stocks, SIPP investors have gone global. With tech companies from China and the US, to established banks, insurers and miners closer to the UK.

Going global gives you the best opportunity to capture growth, as a lot of it happens outside of the UK.

‍Industries old and new

SIPPs tend to hold both established blue-chip players known for their dividend-paying heritage and some of the fastest-growing companies on the planet shaking things up in their relevant sectors. E-commerce, computer chips and even new HR innovations are in there.
