Investing is an opportunity to grow your money, typically outperforming cash savings over the long term. However, investing comes with risk as well as reward, and the value of your investments can go down as well as up. Tax benefits depend on your circumstances and tax rules may change. Any information we provide is to help with your research and isn't financial advice.
