ISA investments are most suited to people who pay UK tax on their investment returns as all returns made within ISA investments are tax-free. You must be over 16 to have an ISA investment. ISA investments can be tailored to suit your own investment purpose. ISA investments are available across the whole range of the risk spectrum from deposit account based ISAs and managed fund ISAs to single share ISAs. Low minimum investment levels make ISAs also suitable for regular savings.

There are 3 types of ISA investments: Cash ISA, Insurance ISA and Stocks & Shares ISA. ISA investments may also be referred to as a Mini or Maxi ISA investments. The maximum amount you can invest annually is £7,000. This can either be invested in 3 separate Mini ISA investments (£3,000 in a Cash ISA, £1,000 in an Insurance ISA and £3,000 in a Stock & Shares ISA) or all £7,000 can be invested into a Maxi ISA investment.

The choice between one Maxi ISA investment and three Mini ISA investments probably depends on whether or not you wish to have a different manager for each of the three components of your ISA investment. If you do not, then a Maxi ISA investment is likely to be more attractive.

Point to Watch: You cannot enter into a Maxi ISA investment and a Mini ISA investment in the same tax year.

Tips: Putting your first investment of each year into ISA investments makes the most of your tax-free allowance. In addition to the above limits, the capital (but not the interest) from expiring TESSA accounts can be invested into some ISA investments. You may be able to transfer shares from your employer's share scheme into a Stocks & Shares or Maxi ISA investment account.

The "CAT" Standard
The Government has introduced a set of standards to assist investors to identify ISA investments that have reasonable Charges, easy Access and fair Terms. Meeting the CAT standard does not guarantee good performance nor does it indicate that a product is the best product in its category.
