Why invest in a Jarvis self-select stocks and shares ISA?

ISAs are one of the most tax-efficient investments available, with returns free from Capital Gains Tax and dividends sheltered from higher rate tax.

Your choice

Your self-select portfolio can comprise of as many investments as you wish; furthermore, you can buy and sell holdings as often as you like.

Investment limits and deadlines

The maximum that can be invested in a stocks and shares ISA each year is £7200 per person.

Lump sum investments may be made at any time, as long as your annual limit is not exceeded. Subscriptions must be invested in one or more qualifying investments as permitted by the ISA regulations.

The cut-off date for investing in an ISA is 5th April every year. Remember, if you dont invest your maximum allowance by then, you will lose your chance to do so for that year.

Transfers

It's easy to transfer an existing shareholding into an ISA. These shares will be sold in the stockmarket and the proceeds used (up to the subscription limit) to repurchase shares for your ISA.

Under certain circumstances, shares from Inland Revenue approved All Employee Share Option Schemes may be transferred into an ISA without incurring any dealing commissions (and free of liability to Capital Gains Tax on any profit).
