How to invest

ETFs trade on an exchange like a normal share.  SPA ETFs are available through all good online brokers, stockbrokers and Independent Financial Advisers.  


SPA ETFs are eligible for inclusion in ISAs and SIPPs.  Unlike many open ended funds, trading shares on an exchange does not incur either a subscription or a redemption charge and there is no Stamp Duty to pay on ETFs. However, as with other types of share, you will generally pay a brokerage fee to buy or sell ETF shares.


To invest, you will need to have the unique identifier for the fund - the ISIN code or the SEDOL.  For SPA ETFs, these codes are available here.  The SPA ETFs are available to purchase in either Sterling or US dollars (and are also listed in Euros in Italy) although the underlying fund is US dollar based.


Before investing in an ETF, you should always take appropriate advice and make sure you read the prospectus.  If you require any further information on Exchange Traded Funds, read our ETFs explained section or contact your Financial Advisor.

Information for Advisers and Institutional Investors

All SPA ETFs are eligible for inclusion in SIPPs & ISAs and our UK listed funds all have UK distributor status.  SPA ETFs are available through all platforms that allow trading in shares.  If you would like to add SPA ETFs to the platform you use, please contact us.


For any major trades, it may be more efficient to go direct to a Market Maker or Authorised Participant to trade, rather than buying on an exchange.  Institutional buyers may get a better price than those quoted on an exchange.


A full contact list is below  

  

Market Makers:

Authorised Participants:

Becoming an Authorised Participant allows you to transact direct with the fund, creating creation units.  SPA ETF has set a minimum of 25,000 shares for a single creation unit and these trades will be carried out at the Net Asset Value (NAV), which is the market value of the fund’s holdings on any given day.  This allows you to trade once a day at NAV without Market Makers spreads applying. If you would like to become an Authorised Participant on our funds, please contact us.
