You can’t invest in the Nikkei 225 directly, unless you want to buy shares in all 225 companies, which would be a pricey and long winded way of getting exposure. An easier way to get exposure to it is with an exchange-traded fund (ETF).
ETFs are basically a collection of stocks – they’re designed to reflect an underlying index. In this case, the Nikkei 225.
You need to have an account open with a share trading platform that lets you trade international stocks. You’ll also need to consider the exchange rate between the pound and the yen.
To make comparing even easier we came up with the Finder Score. Costs, features, ease and range of investments across 30+ platforms are all weighted and scaled to produce a score out of 10. The higher the score the better the platform – simple.
