WELCOME TO BARCLAYS INVESTMENTS



Whether you’re a beginner, an expert or somewhere in between – we can help you
make the most of your money.

We know investing can seem daunting but you don’t have to do it all on your own.
Drawing on our 300 years of investing experience, we’ve got three ways to start
investing. You can make it as simple or as complex as you want it to be.

If you’re not sure what to do first, or would like information on your options,
then understanding what investments Smart Investor has to offer could be a great
place to start.

Before you enter the world of investments you might want to review the benefits
– and drawbacks – of investing your money compared with having cash savings.

The value of investments can fall as well as rise. You may not get back what you
invest. On this page, we’ll help you understand more about our investment
services and help you decide which one is right for you. If you’re not sure
about investing, seek independent advice.

Watch our video below to learn more.

It doesn’t need to be either or when it comes to saving and investing Both is
better.

A blend of savings and investments could be a good thing to aim for.

Saving offers the security of knowing you’re ready for a rainy day, making a
savings account ideal for short-term goals or unexpected expenses.

Investing can help you build towards a brighter future.

Maybe you have big plans?

Or perhaps you just want your money to work a little harder?

Barclays offer different ways to invest which allow you to be as hands-on or
hands-off as you like.

If you choose Plan & Invest our experts will pick your investments and look
after them for you, based on what you’ve told us you’re trying to achieve.

Alternatively, if you’d like to choose and manage your own investments, with our
research, tools and insights, Smart Investor might be a good option.

And with our Ready-made Investments, which are available on Smart Investor, you
have the pick of five funds, which all invest in a mix of shares, bonds and cash
but have varying levels of risk.

These may be a good option if you’re ready to invest but are short on time or
don’t know where to start.

So, however involved you want to be, there’s a way to start making your money
work harder with Barclays.

The value of investments can fall as well as rise, you could get back less than
you invest.

If you’re unsure, please seek independent financial advice.

Overseen by our experts, you can be confident that whichever option you choose,
you’re with an experienced investment provider.

benefits you may lose, or investments that you can’t transfer to us here.
