We're an independent business founded in 2015 to cut through financial jargon and make investing accessible to everyone. No PhD required! Millions of Brits have used us as a trusted source for savings, investments, and pensions guidance. With over 24 years in the investment industry, our founder, Holly Mackay, got tired of watching people struggle through pages of gobbledygook. Here's the secret: once you get past the jargon, sensible investing is actually quite easy. What we do: ✔Compare ISAs, pensions, and investment platforms with independent ratings and reviews ✔Run annual Best Buy Awards based on 26,000+ customer ratings and rigorous testing. ✔Provide clear guides and articles explaining finance in normal language. ✔Offer tools like calculators and quizzes to help you make decisions. ✔Share honest customer reviews so you can learn from real experiences. ✔Help you take action - whether that's opening an ISA, choosing funds, or finding an adviser. We offer generic guidance, not personalised financial advice (we're not regulated advisers). If you've ever felt alienated, patronised, or exhausted by finance, you're in the right place!

Boring Money is down to earth and…

Boring Money is down to earth and practical.
I recommended it to my Cambridge Investors group and had to stop them being chauvinists ! Holly is honest – no hype or ramping - and always interesting.

If this review gets to her , here’s an idea . your may gain some marketing advantage by linking with a chunk of the Investment groups in the country - some just exchanging ideas & tips and some actually collectively investing. I’ve been in both. (The Proshares set up is obtuse and now seems to be off-line.)
Holly - I am an ideas person , so if you want to talk over the above do make .contact

Investment made easy for all

I subscribe to Holly's weekly blog which gives an excellent summary of major topics in the investment world. She has a knack for explaining complex topics in a very easy to understand lingo with a dash of wit and humour. Thank you.
I often go to the website to check the latest saving rates, read and benchmark profiles of investment platforms, check fund performance, and improve my financial knowledge. Highly recommended!
Keep up the good work Holly and team.

Informative, unbiased, simplified for those of us who toy with markets, hugely witty…

Absolutely LOVE this blog. I have got sucked into reading various financial blogs over the years, grappling with the complexities of finance, interest rates, inflation, stock markets. Then Holly arrived in my inbox. I actually look forward to reading her blog, love her inspired, writing style, have learnt such a lot, and followed her suggestions on many occasions. It is so reassuring to read an impartial ‘take’ on the murky world of finance and know there’s no hidden agenda and that she’s on our team. Thank you Holly. Keep it up. We all need you.
