UK equity income and multi-manager products are likely to remain popular for investors when the new ISA season kicks in, according to a leading funds information provider.

Rob Fisher, head of FundsNetwork marketing, noted that diversity is the buzzword for investors this year, while the specialist sector looks likely to dominate proceedings in the near future.

He observed: “Just as last year’s analysis of our sector sales also demonstrated, investors are taking an increasingly diversified approach to their investments, which is very encouraging.”

Interest in property and natural resource funds has been cited as a reason for the considerable success enjoyed by the specialist sector in 2006, when it came top of all investment products having been seventh a year previously.

There have been many calls for the ISA limit to be raised from its current level of £7,000, at which is has sat since ISAs were introduced in 1999.
