Since 1993 Stocktrade has been providing trading services to large companies, investment platforms, pension providers and building societies, including pension administration and bulk dealing linked to maturing share schemes through to telephone and online dealing access for employees, advisers and shareholders.
SIPP
Stocktrade has access to more than 4,000 different investments including UK and overseas shares, investment trusts, exchange traded products and OEICs. The SIPP is designed for customers who are more comfortable with investment risk and who have more time to regularly review their pension investments to make sure they continue to meet their needs, taking advantage of favourable tax allowances. All administration is handled on your behalf including collection of dividends which are credited to your income account.
Other Services
Stocktrade work with quoted companies, discretionary fund managers, life companies, platforms, SIPP providers and buildings societies to offer execution-only trading services.
