Transact

Transact is one of the oldest platforms in the UK, having been in operation since 2000. It is a member of the FTSE 250.

Transact hosts one of the widest ranges of products and investments in the market offering S620 pensions and a broad range of investment trusts. It operates a tiered charging structure and is more expensive for smaller balances. The pricing and broad investment and product range mean it is often used by advisers for larger and more complex client cases.
