Self Select ISAs

Self-Select ISAs allow you to buy and sell shares but any capital gains are tax-free. In addition, there is no Income Tax liability on income received within an ISA with opportunities to select investments that pay interest gross.

There is no doubt that an ISA is one of the best places to 'house' your long-term investments and an excellent opportunity to build up a sizable portfolio as part of retirement planning or as a potential legacy for children and grandchildren - they really should not be overlooked!

What are the benefits?

  • £11,520 annual ISA allowance.
  • Any gains are FREE from capital gains tax (CGT).
  • No further Income Tax liability on income received.
  • Interest paid gross on Gilts, Bonds and PIBs.
  • Dividends paid gross on some Exchange Traded Funds/Commodities.
  • Property Income Distributions (PIDs) from REITs are paid gross.
  • Monthly income service available.
  • Transfer-in existing ISAs (inc Cash ISAs) ∼ save fees.

What are the risks?

  • Investments and the income paid on them can fall as well as rise in value; therefore, your capital is always at risk.
  • Tax treatment depends on the specific circumstances of each individual and may be subject to change in the future.

How much does it cost?

The annual administration charge is £60 + VAT.

If you have ISA accounts held with other providers you can opt to transfer these accounts to Redmayne-Bentley with nothing additional to pay on your annual fee.*

Holding cash in the stocks and shares component
HMRC states that cash may only be held in a stocks and shares ISA to invest in qualifying investments. This includes cash subscriptions, interest and dividends, and proceeds from disposals of qualifying investments that have not yet been reinvested.

2013/14 ISA limits
The current ISA allowance for a stocks and shares is £11,520. If you have already subscribed to a Cash ISA (up to £5,760) you can still invest the remainder in a Stocks and Shares ISA.

Cash ISAs
Cash ISAs can be transferred to a stocks and shares ISA enabling you to invest in a range of securities which may be beneficial in the current low interest rate environment.

We find that many of our clients don't believe they will be affected by Capital Gains Tax (CGT), thinking they will be covered by the annual allowance (£10,900 for 2013/14 tax year). Over time though, modest investments can grow into a sizable portfolio, and in selling their investments (e.g. to buy a property or perhaps pay for medical care), they can be liable to a hefty CGT bill. Holding investments like this within an ISA from the outset could save you thousands of pounds.
