Choose your own investments through our tax-efficient Self-select Stocks & Shares ISA or invest for your child’s future through a Junior ISA.
What are ISAs and JISAs?
An Individual Savings Account (ISA) is a tax efficient savings account. There are different types of ISA, and we provide the Stocks & Shares ISA where you can trade in shares and your gains, dividends and income are tax free. There are limits to the amount you can save into an ISA annually, and for the 2021/22 tax year it is £20,000.
A Junior ISA (JISA) is an ISA for the under 18s. The mechanics are similar to the ISA service, and the parents, or guardians with parental responsibility, can open a JISA and manage the account, but the money belongs to the child. The child can take control of the account when they are 16, but cannot withdraw the money until they turn 18, or convert the JISA in to and adult ISA. There are limits to the amount one can save into a JISA annually, and for the 2021/22 tax year it is £9,000.
How can you make the most of your savings?
With no tax to pay on capital gains or interest earned, using your annual ISA allowance is one of the most tax-efficient ways to invest. By investing your ISA allowance into a Walker Crips Self-Select Stocks & Shares ISA, you can self-select your own investments and have full control over your own ISA.
A wide range of investments are available through our Self-Select Stocks & Shares ISA service. You can also sign up to, and make use of, our investment management service, or you could make your investment decisions yourself.
