Telephone Dealing

You can buy and sell shares and funds online in an Investment Account, ISA, JISA or SIPP, with investment into retail bonds, gilts, PIBS and NEX Exchange equities available via telephone.

We recognise that investors will sometimes have more sophisticated order execution requirements; this is particularly true for larger or more difficult orders, which is where our Dealing Team comes in. Located in our London Dealing Room our experienced dealers can finesse your orders in the Market providing feedback as necessary.

UK Share Dealing

Although we welcome any order, our telephone dealing service is ideally suited to larger or more difficult orders that require a greater degree of finesse than a typical online trade.

Our experienced dealing team has access to all the venues available to our parent Charles Stanley & Co Ltd, to achieve the best possible execution.

This may involve direct negotiation with Market Makers, interacting with order books or other sources of liquidity and where necessary working your order over the business day.
