Independent Savings Accounts (ISA's) were launched in April 1999 as a Government incentive for people to save money.

The ISA is simply a tax free wrapper into which various investments can be placed and enjoy the tax free growth allowable.

The rules of investing in an ISA is that everybody can invest up to a maximum of £10,200 per tax year. You can choose to place up to £5,100 of your investment into a Cash ISA and the remainder in a Stocks & Shares ISA or all of the allowance into a Stocks & Shares ISA.

Stocks & Shares ISA:
- This has to be invested into an equity based ISA, and can be linked to a variety of funds and market sectors, from around the world.
- You are allowed to invest up to £10,200 within this ISA and it should be regarded as a medium to long term investment (minimum 5 years). The returns are dependant upon the performance of the funds selected - upon which we would advise you accordingly, to ensure that they reflect you attitude towards risk.

Cash ISA:
This is a deposit based savings account typically giving instant access with tax free interest. In the main these accounts are offered by Banks and Building Societies.
