    I don’t do much investing myself, as having not long bought a house I’m not exactly flush with cash, but am trickling some money into a lifetime ISA, which I’ll add to more over the years.
    I’ve picked a risky portfolio for the ISA, but interesting to see how else I could look into funds, so thanks for that.
    Just a heads up, as you're a property owner already then if you're a higher rate tax payer you'd likely be better off putting your extra money into a pension than a LISA. More money in the pot that way.

    Thanks to this thread, I've done a little digging on my own pension arrangement.

    I've been pretty good lately when it comes to getting money into the pot, but I'll confess to not giving much thought to what's happening inside the pot. There is some optionality on funds available to me through my workplace pension, and of course the SIPP route.

    As it stands, it's all in a Global Equity Fund, and in keeping with Montello's post it turns out it's quite USA centric. Returns seem decent, albeit below the 'benchmark' (although beyond me what the benchmark is set by), and fees seem OK at 0.11% (although some of the fund options are half that, others more than double). I'm not sure I'm any closer to a decision to change anything, but I'm at least a bit better informed now I've done some digging!

    Well done for taking a look, that must be some sort of global active fund, that seems to be underperforming the index / benchmark.

    Appreciate the heads up, but already paying into a DB scheme at work so this is just in addition to that.
