So they will happily put it back down again when RPI drops, will they

So you are getting hammered by

1. Your growth is being eroded by inflation
2. Growth rates are tulip anyway
3. They now want a bigger chunk of a barely increasing pot

Edit : What are the "charges" anyway. Are they referring to the fund management (i.e. commission) charge.

Isn't that a percentage anyway. So if your pot inflates by at least inflation - it should do - they surely they will automatically receive an inflation based increase anyway.

Unlikely since he is probably not licensed by the FSA to give such advice.

Standard Life to put SIPP charges up by 4% because of RPI

Just had a nice letter from them where they informing me that my SIPP charges are going up by 4% because of RPI.

I never knew I was trading on the 'basket of goods' market.

Fookin chancers.
