I'm a respected businessman but I still count between lightning and thunder

the essentials of sharedealing

no registration or annual fees

The first direct shares service is execution only and first direct does not give any investment advice.

Stock market investments should be viewed as a medium to long term investment (for at least 5 years). Obviously the value of shares may go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount you originally invested. The value of the tax advantages depends on individual circumstances. Tax rules may change.
