Review of the NatWest, Investments:

View on product page

Regret investing with NatWest Invest

This was introduced by my Premium Manager as a relatively low risk investment. With 5 risk options I chose the lowest and my husband the second lowest. My initial investment has fallen lower than his. Whilst I appreciate the disclaimer and understand there are difficult economic conditions the fund managers, Coutts, are described as experienced investors. Initially our investment grew marginally. The downfall in our Investment appears to coincide with their decision to switch to become environmentally friendly in Feb 22 when 50% of the funds were invested in assets working towards zero greenhouse gas emissions. Over the next few months (and only 2 years of investing) this steadily lost us a combined total of £11k. Although this has recovered slightly we have little option but to leave our funds with NatWest longer term than anticipated in the hope of recovering our initial investment only. This will be withdrawn assuming we get our money back. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2023
