Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs)
A SIPP is, in essence, a DIY personal pension.
A SIPP’s wider investment powers allow you to choose what investments you want to put your savings into, and keep control of your savings.
What can a SIPP invest in?
- Stocks and shares
- Investment trusts listed on any stock exchange
- UK government bonds, plus bonds issued by foreign governments
- Open ended investment companies which are recognised by the Financial Conduct Authority
- Gilts and bonds
- Exchange traded funds traded on the London Stock Exchange or other European markets
- Bank deposit accounts including non-Sterling accounts
- Commercial property
- Real estate investment trusts listed on any stock exchange Offshore funds
SIPPs are easily managed online if this is your preference and most SIPP platforms can look very much like online banking portals. The platform will allow you to see how much money is in your pension fund and where it’s invested, both on a 24/7 basis.
SIPPs can also be suitable for people who want to gather all of their pensions into one pot before they retire, or for those who want to keep their money invested after they retire so that they can draw down an income from it.
The greater pension freedoms afforded may persuade more people to opt for a Sipp pre-retirement to start actively managing their fund.

I have always found Pembroke friendly and efficient.
Brilliant Job
I have kept an eye on my pension recently and saw on Friday that it is now above the best Pre-COVID level. What a brilliant job Pembroke has done to achieve this!
