Funds, grouped by what they actually hold.

A fund pools money from many people and invests it for them — in shares, bonds, property or something else. The groups below sort 3,060 UK-listed funds we track by what they own, with one plain sentence on each. Nothing here is a recommendation.

Shares by region

Funds that own companies, grouped by where those companies are.

Global shares

214 funds · typical charge 0.30%

Thousands of companies across many countries, held in one fund — the broadest way to own the stock market.

UK shares

33 funds · typical charge 0.10%

Companies listed in the UK, such as those in the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250.

US shares

219 funds · typical charge 0.19%

American companies, including the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 — the largest stock market in the world.

European shares

230 funds · typical charge 0.21%

Companies across Europe. Some funds include the UK and some leave it out — the fund name says which.

Japan & Asia Pacific

95 funds · typical charge 0.20%

Companies in Japan, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and the wider Pacific region.

Emerging markets

144 funds · typical charge 0.35%

Companies in faster-growing but less mature economies such as China, India, Taiwan and Brazil. Prices tend to move more.

Smaller companies

35 funds · typical charge 0.35%

Smaller firms, which can grow faster than large ones but whose prices usually swing more.

Themes and sectors

Funds that focus on one idea or industry rather than a whole market.

Dividend & income

101 funds · typical charge 0.38%

Funds that pick companies paying regular dividends, or that aim to pay out an income.

Technology

123 funds · typical charge 0.50%

Software, chips, AI and other tech companies. One sector only, so prices can move more than a broad fund.

Healthcare

19 funds · typical charge 0.25%

Pharmaceutical, biotech and medical-equipment companies.

Sustainable & clean energy

162 funds · typical charge 0.25%

Funds that screen companies on environmental, social or governance grounds, or focus on clean energy.

Single sectors

143 funds · typical charge 0.30%

Funds focused on one industry — banks, energy, defence, mining and so on.

Bonds and cash-like

Loans to governments and companies, and funds that behave like cash.

Government bonds

280 funds · typical charge 0.12%

Loans to governments, such as UK gilts and US Treasuries. They pay interest; their prices move when interest rates change.

Corporate & other bonds

385 funds · typical charge 0.25%

Loans to companies and other borrowers, which usually pay more interest than government bonds in exchange for more risk.

Cash-like & short-term

32 funds · typical charge 0.10%

Very short-term loans and money-market funds that aim to follow interest rates with little price movement.

Other building blocks

Ready-made mixes, property, commodities, trusts and higher-risk products.

Ready-made mixes

44 funds · typical charge 0.24%

Shares and bonds combined in one fund at a set balance — for example 60% shares and 40% bonds.

Property & infrastructure

69 funds · typical charge 0.47%

Property companies (REITs) and infrastructure such as energy networks, roads and data centres.

Gold & commodities

143 funds · typical charge 0.40%

Gold, silver, oil and other raw materials. They pay no dividends or interest — returns come only from price changes.

Investment trusts

200 funds

Companies on the stock exchange that invest in other assets. Their share price can be above or below the value of what they own.

Crypto

17 funds · typical charge 0.50%

Products that track Bitcoin and other cryptoassets.

Leveraged & inverse

308 funds · typical charge 0.98%

Other

64 funds · typical charge 0.60%

Alternatives, currencies and funds that do not fit the groups above.
