Investment returns aren’t guaranteed. The value of an investment can go down as well as up and may be less than the amount(s) paid in.

Our charges

Nucleus is completely open - with no hidden charges on accounts or dealing. Our charging structure is simple and transparent and starts from 0.33%, with tiering for large cases to 0.05%. Unlike other wrap platforms, we won’t charge you for transferring money, moving into drawdown, or for day-to-day trading of funds.

Members of the UK Platform Group have developed a factsheet to help consumers compare platform charges – the factsheet outlines the types of charges imposed by platforms and the different labels that are used across the industry to describe such charges.

Our approach to cash interest

We changed our approach to how we manage interest on platform cash with effect from July 2022. We’ll still pay interest on a quarterly basis, but we’ve updated the way we calculate it. Further information on how we manage your cash interest can be found here.

We actively manage platform cash with the banks we work with. In 2022, this approach has made it possible for us to pay you almost 10 times more interest for Q3 than we did for Q2 and a further 2.5 times for Q4. The table below shows the detail of this. And in the near future, we expect to pay even more.

We deposit platform cash with a carefully selected panel of banks. We’ll only use banks which are authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority, regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority, and are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). More details on your financial protection can be found here.


The table below shows how we’ll share the interest generated on cash with you.
