Apologies if this has been asked before....
I am in my early 60's and I have a largish SIPP in drawdown in L&G tracker like funds on a platform managed by Willis Towers Watson who have a long track record in the UK. The service they provide is fine but have an ad valorem fee structure. I would save a few thousand a year by switching to a platform like Vanguard or ii. I am inclined to transfer to one of the cheaper providers. I am more than happy to make my own investment decisions and have been investing for 35 years both in my SIPP and ISA.
So the questions I have for this forum are.
1. In your experience typically how long do such transfer take?
2. Can anyone vouch for the service/quality of either/or ii/Vanguard?
3. Does anyone have a view if ii/Vanguard are serious and likely see me through the rest of my
retirement. Say 25 years.
I am not sure I want to keep transferring to the cheapest provider if these guys quit the endeavor.
4. If I transfer to Vanguard, I will have to invest in Vanguard products. That is fine. Would it then be
prudent to transfer Vanguard funds in my ISA to other providers such as iShares to avoid putting all
my eggs in one basket?
5. Is there anyone else I should consider as a SIPP provider who charge a flat fee structure that they
would recommend?
6. Any other salient question I should have asked?
Thanks for your help.
