Hi is it possible to make some of the bond etfs fractional?
There’s a good selection of bond etfs on here now, but only a few are fractional.
Thanks

Just think it would good to have better access to some of these ETFs as some of these are over £100 and minimum of 1 share. So it discourages some of the lower value investors.
fair enough. a good spread of bond there.
on the upside, with the upcoming feature of portfolio pie and re-balancer, we may soon yet see all new shares added to at minimum 0.1 fractions up to 0.001 (for those pricier stocks)
I was thinking of that when I asked about the fractional bonds, because I was watching a video about m invest (or whatever it’s called, the US one) and the they had set up a pie for bonds. I’m hoping to be able to do the same soon with the update. I realised I’m majorly lacking bonds with recent events, I think I need incorporate some into my portfolio.
Ah yes, M1 Finance as seen in YouTuber Joseph Carlsons Dividend Investing series. 
Bonds are good for the stability they bring, to the overall portfolio value at least. I would sooner invest the money in companies proven to weather recessions well and grow them further when panic shakes down the prices.
speaking of him, perhaps we have a few potential UK/European budding youtubers who would try their hand at making the T212 version I can’t, got no ability to socialise hahaha.
