Time for ’serious thinking’ from investors March 21

Invesco Perpetual is urging investors to think seriously about their investment strategy for the new tax year, which starts on April 5th.

Rick White, the marketing director of Invesco Perpetual, said that as the current tax year draws to a close, investors should be looking ahead with optimism - particularly with regards to the UK stock markets.

“2006 was an especially volatile year for the stock market, yet the FTSE 100 index still grew by 9.49 per cent over that year,” Mr White said.

“This is a good time for investors to look at their…strategy, both in terms of what they invest in and which method of investing is best for them.”

Mr White was particularly keen to stress that regular savings plans should be considered as an alternative for those without a full £7,000 as a lump sum to hand.

More cautious investors who want to spread out their investment across the tax year could also benefit from this ISA alternative, Mr White added.
