About ISAs
Cash ISAs
A Cash ISA works fairly similarly to normal savings accounts offered by a bank or building society, You get the benefit however of earning interest at a tax-free rate up until your maximum allowance, you are only to have one Cash ISA each tax year, however you are allowed to also open a stocks & shares ISA and break your allowance up between the two. Providers tend to offer different choices of Cash ISA such as; Instant Access, Easy Access and Fixed Rate ISAs.
Stocks & Shares ISA’s
Despite being another kind of Individual Savings Account, Stocks and shares ISA’s differ considerable from their cash alternative. A stock and shares ISA is a tax-efficient investment account, you get the option of putting money into different investments such as; funds, trusts and corporate bonds. You don’t pay capital gains tax on gains made within your ISA, but you do on dividends. As this option involves risk, your capital is not protected and if the value of your investments decrease you can end up getting less than you put in.
Junior ISAs
Young people aged under 18 are permitted to have a Junior ISA. Those aged over 16 may open one themselves or you can open a junior ISA for a child under 16 that you have parental responsibility of. Money placed in either type of junior ISA cannot be withdrawn until on or after their 18th birthday.
Transferring an ISA
Providers of ISA’s have to allow them to be transferred to other providers; however a provider does not have to allow a saver to make a transfer to a new ISA with them. Transferring an ISA can be a good way to ensure you are always getting the best rate, however if your existing ISA has a transfer penalty it can be wise to first work out if, factoring the penalty in, you would stand to earn more by staying with your existing arrangement.
