About Charles Stanley
For more than 200 years, the firm that is now Charles Stanley and Company Limited has been serving the private investor - first as bankers, and later as one of the City of London's leading stockbroking houses.
The "Big Bang" stock market revolution in the 1980s led many stockbrokers to ally themselves with large domestic or international investment banks in the pursuit of institutional business.
Charles Stanley refused to follow the herd; not only maintaining its independence and private-client focus, but establishing branch offices in a number of regional centres and introducing a range of services and investment products that is specifically tailored to individual needs, that can be added to and further developed as circumstances change.

Tracker Shares
Tracker shares mirror the fortunes of an index of shares, such as the FTSE 100 or S&P 500. They combine the benefits of a fund - instant diversification as your risk is spread across a whole sector - with the benefits of a share, in that they're easy to buy and sell and you receive dividends.
They are good for diversifying into many shares at the same time rather than 'putting all your eggs in one basket'. This can reduce risk. It is unlikely that an index, such as the FTSE 100 will ever fall to nil, whereas company shares can.
