Compare Retirement Savings & Investment Options

Aegon ISAs

Aegon is one of the world’s largest providers of life insurance, pensions and asset management services. After buying Cofunds in 2016 it became the largest platform provider in the UK, now offering over 4,000 investment options for both advisers and customers. The company was originally known as Scottish Equitable and was formed in 1831.

Stocks and Shares ISA

Aegon’s Stocks and Shares ISA is a tax efficient way to save for the medium to long term, giving you access to a range of different investment opportunities where you can invest a regular monthly amount, a lump sum – or both. You must be 18 or over and a UK resident to qualify.

The ISA is very efficient as you have no personal liability to capital gains tax on any growth, or income tax on any income you receive, which means you don’t have to declare ISA income or growth on your tax return.

The limit for ISAs for the 2023/24 tax year is £20,000. Any money in the cash facility accrues interest which is paid on a monthly basis at the base rate of 0.05%. Money held in the Stocks and Shares ISA is used to invest into funds. You can also pay charges to withdraw from it anytime.

Other Services

Aegon offers several other products for consumers, including Pension Schemes, Stocks and Shares and Insurance, as well as various workplace and investment products for businesses. The company also offers various support services, called Policy Plus, at no extra cost for its customers, which includes a Health & Wellbeing Service, Second Medical Opinions, Key Person Replacement Service and a Funeral Payment Pledge.

Aegon Reviews and Ratings
