HL Ready-made Investments
Leave it to the experts with our all-in-one portfolio funds
Important information - these portfolio funds are designed for people who want to leave the day-to-day investment decisions to an expert. But they’re not personal recommendations: you should still be comfortable choosing an investment without personal advice. You’re responsible for making sure your decisions are right for your circumstances and needs. If you’re not sure a decision or investment is right for you, please contact us for financial advice.
Investments fall as well as rise in value, so you could get back less than you put in. Past performance isn’t a guide to the future. These investments are managed by our sister company Hargreaves Lansdown Fund Managers Ltd.
An easy way to start investing
Looking to invest but unsure where to start? Our all-in-one portfolio funds could help.
With four to choose from, you can pick the investment most suited to you.

Think about ready-made if:
- You don’t want to spend too much time managing your investments.
- You’d like a team of experts to look after the day-to-day investment decisions.
- You won’t need the money for at least 5 years.
- You’ve already built-up cash savings for emergencies.
- You’re happy to check in on your investment every now and then.
Think about alternatives if:
- You don’t want the value of your investment to fluctuate, or you’re unsure of the differences between saving and investing.
- You don’t feel comfortable choosing and reviewing your investment. Ready-made investments aren’t the same as personal advice, so if you’re not sure investing is right for you, ask for financial advice.
- You’d like more control to build your own portfolio.
