We've teamed up with Family Investments to provide our stakeholder CTF account
Provided by
This Child Trust Fund invests most of your child's money in stocks and shares to take advantage of what are expected to be higher rates of growth over the long term compared to a cash account.
However, please remember that the capital is protected in a cash account whereas the value of stocks and shares can fall as well as rise and your child may get back less than has been paid in.
Then, on or before the child's 13th birthday, they will start to invest less in shares and more in fixed interest and cash investments. This is to help protect the value of the account over the last few years of the investment.
All money is invested for the benefit of the child, which only they will be able to access, and only once they reach 18.
To apply or to request an application pack, please click here or call Family Investments on 0800 028 3380 (calls maybe recorded or monitored for training purposes).
