It's time to take control and close the gap
Important information – Investments can go down as well as up in value, so you could get back less than you put in. The information on this page isn't advice – please ask us for advice if you’re not sure which investments are right for you. Tax rules can change and the benefits will depend on your circumstances.

9% less than men
We live longer. We take career breaks to look after our families. We actually need more money than men because we live longer, but we end up with less in our retirement pots.
It’s time to take control and close the gap. There’s lots you can do to make the most of your money and control your financial future.
Whatever stage of life you’re at, we can help.

I'm looking to get onto the property ladder
If you’re 18-39 you can get an extra boost towards your first home with a Lifetime ISA. Choose to save as cash or invest in the stock market, the real benefit is an extra 25% up to £1,000 from the government each year. You can use it for purchasing your first home or later life, but taking the money out for any other reason usually means you get a 25% penalty – meaning you could get back less than you put it.
