What is an IG Smart Portfolio?

IG Smart Portfolios are a collection of ready-made portfolios that have a five-year track record. We think these are the perfect vehicle to use to save for your retirement.

6-year track record

Globally diversified

Managed by experts

Expertly managed

We take investment insights from BlackRock to decide on what goes into your portfolio. To keep you on track, we’ll make adjustments in line with BlackRock’s outlook to reflect changing market dynamics and the global economy. We now have a 5-year track record in managing our customers’ investments.

Global diversification

You will get a globally diversified portfolio that is tailored to your investment goals. Your portfolio will invest in a mix of equities, bonds, property, and commodities that is right for you risk profile.

Built using ETFs

We build your portfolio using exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These give you broad exposure to stock markets, bonds and other asset classes and have a low annual fee to keep your costs down.

Zero transaction fees

We will never charge you commission fees when we buy or sell investments for your portfolio.

Low management fee

Our management fee is low at 0.5% on the value of your investments. We cap your cost at £250 a year per account type, meaning investments over £50,000 are managed free of charge.

Fully flexible

Add funds, withdraw or switch portfolio throughout the day. Your money is not locked in once you invest either. You can move money to and from your Share Dealing SIPP too.

How to open an IG Smart Portfolio SIPP

  1. Open an IG Smart Portfolio account

    It takes less than five minutes to open your account through our website or award-winning mobile app.

  2. Add a SIPP account

    Add your SIPP through the My IG Dashboard. Here you can pick an IG Smart Portfolio SIPP.

  3. Set up your SIPP plan with Options UK

    You will receive an invite from Options UK to set up your SIPP plan via their website. When you have completed this, Options UK will let us know and we will activate your IG SIPP account.

  4. Transfer or fund your SIPP at Options UK

    Options can accept transfers from any UK registered pension scheme or recognised overseas pension scheme. You can also set-up regular contributions or make one-off contributions.

  5. Choose your portfolio

    When your SIPP plan is activated, you will be able to pick which portfolio to invest in through our dedicated platform. We will help with finding which portfolio may be most suitable by asking you a series of questions to help determine your risk profile.
