My son just turned 22, he's been very lucky and has £24,000 from an inheritance he now holds in savings, i know very little about investing but i know enough to convince him to invest it, he seems keen on the idea but i was unsure how to guide him, think i will advise the global approach.
I went for Vanguard's Gloabl All Cap. Yes it is a bit more expensive than the cheapest option but it has exposure to small-cap value factor, which was historically rewarding.
I just discovered by watching a video earlier today that PACW is an ESG fund, due to Amundi's ESG policy across all its investments. I didn't know that, despite reading up on it and nearly transferring a chunk of my SIPP into it at the beginning of this year. I'm glad I opted for the HSBC All World OEIC, as I avoid ESG funds and just go for the whole market. (I prefer to make my own mistakes when it comes to thematic investing thanks very much).
tl:dr - invest in a global tracker, every day/week/month and don't forget. get on with your life. How this should have been drilled into 20 year old me... Great job on Vid.
