What is an ISA?

An ISA (Individual Savings Account) allows you to invest up to £7,200 each year tax free.

There are two types of ISA:

  • Cash ISA - You can invest up to £3,600 in cash each tax year.
  • Share ISA - You can invest up to £7,200 in shares.

What are the benefits of an ISA?

You can invest up to £7,200 tax free in cash, shares or a combination of both.

You can take advantage of tax breaks to earn more than you would with a standard savings account. Read our guide which compares ISAs and standard savings accounts.

What else should I know about an ISA?

  • With a share ISA, you’re not guaranteed a return on your investments each year. They should be seen as a long term investments.
  • Ensure that you take your full allowance each year. Once the year is over you lose any unused allowance.
  • Try not to withdraw money from your ISA, as you’re not able to re-invest once you’ve made a withdrawal.
