After getting some advice from a broker (I put my SSIA into Aviva and this broker now handles that investment) we've decided to go with a new Zurich fund "Easy Access investment bond" as we might need to get the money quickly in the next six months in order to buy a house.
Agree with above. Easy access and investment shouldn't really be in the same sentence!
You could invest in shares and have easy access
The point is that equities are more volatile than cash, so you should not invest in them if your time horizon is lest that about 5 years (I think Irish advisers say 3 years, but Swiss advisors always say 5), otherwise you may be forced to sell at a loss because you can not wait for things to turn around.
