An Individual Savings Account (ISA) protects the returns on your investments from income tax and capital gains tax.
Remember, the value of investments can fall as well as rise and you could get back less than you invest. If you’re not sure about investing, seek independent advice. Tax rules can change and their effects on you will depend on your individual circumstances.
While you can hold a wide range of asset classes in an ISA, funds help diversify your portfolio as your money is spread across different investments.
When it comes to choosing the funds for your ISA, you may be interested to see what other customers have been buying to help with investment ideas.
The details of our most popular funds are updated monthly, using the number of purchase deals placed by our Smart Investor customers during the calendar month.
You may be interested to see what other customers have done, however this may have limited value in making a decision on the investments that are most suitable for you. This is not a personal recommendation and should not be seen as independent advice.
You should remember the investment goals you have set, and consider if each fund you like will contribute to building a diversified and balanced portfolio.
