Vanguard has cut a swathe through the US fund management industry with its zealous approach to keeping costs for investors as low as possible. It now manages over $4 trillion dollars of funds in the US and in May 2017 it launched a low-cost platform selling directly to UK investors cutting out expensive intermediaries.

In this interview, Ryan Barrows, Head of Business Development for Vanguard UK, describes the new ultra low-cost platform that allows investors to buy Vanguard funds, complete with ISAs, Junior ISAs and, soon, SIPPS.
