The world is becoming environmentally conscious and has helped us re-evaluate the energy we use and helped find new and friendlier ways to produce it. Renewable energy will most likely be the largest source of new power generation in the world in the near future, and the business of creating it stands to grow along the way.

Why invest in ETFs?

Diversification

ETFs are not only a great way to gain exposure to major stock market indices, like the S&P 500 or FTSE All-Share, but also enable you to access more niche markets or specific sectors.

Tax-efficient

Exchange-traded funds are exempt from the 0.50% stamp duty. Hold your ETFs as part of an ISA or SIPP tax wrapper, and you can access additional tax benefits.

Simplicity

When buying ETFs, you invest in a basket of stocks that will mirror how a specific index performs without buying all the stocks individually.

Low costs

ETFs have less management fees involved. They also tend to be less costly than purchasing individual shares - fewer transactions, less trading costs.
