A Guide to Personal Equity Plans and Stock Market Investment

Personal Equity Plans (PEPs) offer a flexible way to build savings through stock-market investment and without interference from the taxman. This introduction to the essential facts about PEPs describes the many different types available and the ways in which they can be used to best advantage. The book is in two parts: it explains what PEPs are and how they work, and then goes on to describe the workings of the stock market for those with limited experience of share investment. It offers advice on choosing a PEP, how to select shares, and how to claim tax-relief.
