Share dealing SIPP


Guest anders

Question

Hi, I'm thinking of transferring a portion of my Defined Contribution pension to an IG SIPP. I have a couple questions.

  1. Is there a way to see the range of shares, ETFs, etc. that are available to buy with IG Index's Share dealing SIPP? I don't want to find out it's really limited after the fact. There doesn't appear to be a SIPP demo account.
  2. Are IG's "Share dealing SIPP" and "IG Smart Portfolio SIPP" separate products, or if I open the former, I can I also invest some money in a Smart Portfolio?

Thanks.

I contacted IG support about this, and the answer was I have to contact James Hay. There were able to confirm that, "You can sell the shares in your IG SIPP and move the proceeds to your Smart Portfolio."

Unfortunately James Hay don't have new fangled things such as an email address. As I don't have an account at James Hay, I'm left with contacting them on the phone. I thought I'd take another look at this today, and the jameshay.co.uk Website is down. Net result is I have zero confidence an IG SIPP would be a relaible or convientent service.

I appreciate there appears to be little interest in this, but hopefully this helps anyone else looking at their SIPP. This has cemented my decision to transfer my ISA away from IG Index too.

I like IG as a whole and have had good experience with them. But James Hay seem apalling so far. They have failed to get a code to and it's been over a month. Plus when I phoned them they assured me someone would call me that day. Its been over a week.   So a plea to IG. Re evluate you your relationship with James Hay. Its not doing you any good at all if I take into account my experience.

I deal with Fidelity and their only shortcoming is lach of international share dealing to date.

    • Solana ($SOL) is facing a challenging period in the market, with its price dropping to $130.56 USD. Here’s a closer look at what’s happening and what might be next for SOL. Recent Price Decline 15.17% Drop in a Month: Over the past month, Solana coin has fallen by 15.17%. This decline reflects the broader market’s pressure on the cryptocurrency. 8.5% Weekly Fall: Just this week, Solana saw an 8.5% drop, a sign that bears are firmly in control. Despite attempts to maintain a bullish outlook, the market seems to have different plans. Critical Support Levels Breakdown of $134 Support: Recently, SOL broke through the $134 support level, raising concerns that further declines could be on the way. Key Support at $122: The $122 level is now under the spotlight. This price point has been tested six times, and many whales view it as crucial. A break below this could push SOL towards $90. But if this support holds, it might set the stage for a bullish turnaround. $100 Support: While the $100 support level is still a bit distant, it’s essential to watch if the current bearish momentum continues. Revisiting this level could spell trouble for Solana. Changing Market Sentiment Shift to Bearish: The overall sentiment around Solana is slowly turning bearish. Since March, SOL has struggled to make new highs, and the current price action suggests that new lows could be coming. Potential Bullish Outcome: However, some analysts believe that if Solana manages to stay above $122 throughout 2024 and 2025, it could be incredibly bullish for the future, possibly leading to significant gains in 2025. Upcoming Breakpoint Event Historical Price Surges: There’s a potential catalyst on the horizon. Historically, Solana has seen price surges two weeks before its annual Breakpoint event. In previous years, SOL surged by 35% in 2021 and 2022, and by 60% in 2023. 2024 Event: With 16 days left until the 2024 Breakpoint event, could we see another rally? Only time will tell. The Importance of $122 Support As Solana approaches the $122 support level, all eyes are on whether it will hold. A break below could lead to further declines, while maintaining this support could bring back some bullish momentum. As always, stay informed, and remember the old adage in crypto: "buy the rumor, sell the news." Keep watching the charts as we near the 2024 Breakpoint event.  
    • One of the prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has maintained its commitment to user security through its Protection Fund.

The fund has consistently maintained a value above $390 million, surpassing Bitget's initial commitment of $300 million. The exchange ability to continues to maintain a reserve ratio well above 150%, indicating a strong buffer against potential risks. The fund's value has shown correlation with Bitcoin's price movements, demonstrating its responsiveness to market conditions.

In February, the fund reached an all-time high valuation of over $543 million, coinciding with broader market uptrends. The Protection Fund's portfolio includes high-liquidity cryptocurrencies such as BTC, USDT, and USDC, which contributes to its stability and liquidity. This diversification strategy aims to mitigate risks associated with external market factors. Bitget's approach of self-funding and internally managing the Protection Fund allows for potentially quicker response times in critical situations, as it operates independently of external regulations and approvals. As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, the performance and management of such security measures will likely remain a point of interest for both users and industry observers.
