Bank of Scotland Self-Select Stocks and Shares ISA

What exactly is an ISA?
An Individual Savings Account (ISA) is a savings product which was set up by the Government in 1999. Our Self Select Stocks & Shares ISA is an account where you can invest up to an overall limit each tax year in any of our ISA eligible investments.

On 6th April 2011, the ISA subscription limit increased to £10,680. Up to £5,340 of this new ISA allowance can be saved in a cash ISA with one provider. The remainder of the £10,680 can be invested in a stocks & shares ISA with the same or another provider. Alternatively, the full £10,680 can be invested in a stocks & shares ISA with one provider such as Bank of Scotland Share Dealing.

Any profits made on your investments within the ISA are free from Capital Gains Tax*.Our ISA is suitable if you want flexibility in what you trade in - be free to invest in stocks & shares, funds or gilts & bonds.
