AJ Bell

Really interesting and nice to hear a positive business story on Wake Up To Money because as I say, we're going to hear a bit of challenge throughout the programme.

Today, alongside Rachel for the next hour and here in the studio with me this morning, Russ Mould, Investment Director at AJ Bell Morning.

Morning, Will.

Lovely to be here.

Hello, and welcome to this week's episode of the AJ Bell Money and Markets podcast.

I'm Dani Hewson, and joining me to discuss what has moved markets this week, and in fact, well, we'll kind of look back over the summer.

I know we had a pod last week, but still, [claps hands] uh, Dan Coatsworth.

Send us an email, podcast@ajbell.co.uk.

Okay, let's bring in Martin Gamble now to take us through something that we get asked about a lot, and that is the P/E ratio.

It's one of the big discussions in the new issue of Shares magazine that you can read for free on AJ Bell's website.

Hi, Martin.

Obviously, if you're looking at investing and you're doing it outside a Junior ISA, then it's just a general investment account.

You know, people like AJ Bell or Fidelity or Hargreaves Lansdown all offer those, or the robo investors like Wealthify and Moneyfarm all offer that type of stuff where you can go and open a general investment account for them outside of an ISA.

It, it's a difficult situation.

It follows on from the question about grandparents.

So we'll come on to what type of funds in a moment.

But when you're choosing your platform, when it's junior ISA, both Hargreaves Lansdown, which is where Anna's from, which is why it's me who should say it, not her, and Fidelity have no management fees for their junior ISAs, though individual funds can have their own fees depending on the funds that you choose.

There's also the likes of AJ Bell.

If you're...

I'm Brianne, and in today's episode, we'll be looking at premium bonds and how much value they might be able to add to your wallet.

Joining us today is Sarah Coles, Head of Personal Finance at AJ Bell.

Sarah, welcome to the show.

Oh, thanks very much for having me.

You have a wonderful week and we will speak to you again soon, I hope.

That is Russ Mould from AJ Bell.

Hi, I'm Charlene Young and welcome back to the AJ Bell Money and Markets podcast after our summer break.

Joining me on the show this week is Tom Siever.

Hi, Tom.

I'll be back.

Sorry, I just say what comes into my mind.

But before we go, we also wanted to highlight a podcast that Tom and I are recording next week alongside our very own Rachel Vahey, AJ Bell's Head of Public Policy and the podcast's Resident Pensions Corner Expert.

We are going to answer your burning questions on pensions.

Obviously a subject always close to my heart too, but we can't answer those questions if you do not send them in.
