Fool.co.uk launches a new Share Dealing Service

The Motley Fool, www.Fool.co.uk is pleased to announce the launch of its Share Dealing Service.

The new offering will allow customers to buy and sell UK shares for just £10 a trade. (International shares will cost £17.50 per trade.) There are no annual fees and no hidden charges. Additionally, you can run a cash management account alongside your trading accounts, which means that you will earn interest while you wait to find the right shares to buy.

Customers can also opt for a ShareBuilder service that only costs £1.50 per purchase. With ShareBuilder customers can build a portfolio gradually by buying shares on a set day four times a month. The best part of ShareBuilder is that customers can invest as little or as much as they want.

Saul Devine, Managing Director at Fool.co.uk comments: “The Motley Fool recognises that investing in shares can be one of the best ways to generate long-term returns. Through the Motley Fool Share Dealing Service we now provide a one-stop shop where customers can learn, get help and buy shares in one place.”
