Britain’s savers want to invest but confidence is holding them back, according to in-depth research by investment giant Vanguard.
So, what can you do if you want to make your money work harder and have a better chance of getting richer over the long-term – and beating inflation – but aren’t sure where to start?
And how can those existing investors, who started out with good intentions but ended up with a jumbled portfolio that they just don’t have time to keep on top of, sort out their investments?
Ben Summers, head of Vanguard for the UK, joins This is Money’s Simon Lambert on this episode of the Investing Show to discuss what it found out about Britain’s savers and investors when it asked them about their attitudes and activity.
And he discusses the practical actions both new and more experienced investors can take to make sure they are set up to grow their wealth with minimum hassle.
