Sam's review
HSBC InvestDirect is HSBC UK’s execution-only share dealing service. It offers a Stocks & Shares ISA for customers who want to hold listed investments within an ISA wrapper. The service is structurally a bank share-dealing account rather than an app-only broker. Charges are set out in HSBC’s InvestDirect tariff.
