Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And I know a lot of people are not used to money things being called products, but they essentially are.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So an ETF, exchange traded fund.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

It is a basket.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So think of just a picnic basket of sorts that has a whole choice of different companies in it.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And each basket can have a different flavor.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So you could have one that's based totally on Europe.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

You could have one that's based on the UK.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

You could have one that's maybe based on tech.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

You could have one based on European tech.

New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So you can pick whatever flavor basket you want.

New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And you go, okay, so I'm really interested in just bog standard investing.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

I just want to go with the market and not think too much about this.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And you might go, I just want a slice of the whole world.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

No messing around with sectors or tech or healthcare or anything.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

But then you find an ETF that has a slice of the world and that's the basket you buy.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And you can just buy it in one trade like you're buying a share.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

And you can, like there's three and a half thousand ETFs out there at the moment.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

There's probably more, but in our jurisdiction, there's about that and there's more coming on every day.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So do your research and make sure you understand exactly what that ETF is tracking.

Better With Money
New savings and investment scheme: What's in Simon Harris' plan?

So they tend to track indexes and that's the flavors I was talking about there a second ago.
