Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be £73,265 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +159.0%.

Lump sum instead — £42,100 all at once in Jun 1988: £597,113 (+1318.3%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jul 2026): £199.5 on £200 invested (-0.3%).

⚠ Price returns only — dividends are not included. This understates the true return of dividend-paying shares, and any comparison against crypto (which pays no dividends) is biased against equities by roughly the dividend yield, compounded.

Hypothetical — this backtests the group’s cap-weighted index, which isn’t directly investable. A real tracker fund adds fees and tracking difference, and the index only spans months where enough members have history.
