All Aboard IFISA Season

Ready for tax-free earnings on up to £20,000?

3rd January 2023

Have your transferred your IFISA? The 5th of April is fast approaching, transfer your IFISA today and you could earn tax-free on up to £20,000. Why would I choose to invest in an IFISA?

Here's 9 reasons:

1) You want to invest in entrepreneurs and support the local economy. You are prepared to invest in riskier investments and accept that your principal investment and any target returns are not guaranteed.

2) You want to support small businesses and develop meaningful relationships with your money.

3) You’re an entrepreneurial investor with an interest in where your money goes.

4) You want to be in control of your money and engage with the investment process.

5) You want to receive additional tangible rewards, like new products and services.

6) You want to try investing through a different channel, other than banks and stockbrokers.

7) You’d enjoy investing on an innovative platform when it suits you, online or via a mobile app.

8) You want to diversify your current portfolio.

9) You want to allocate part of your savings to peer to peer lending. It’s important to understand that you should only invest what you could realistically afford to lose as IFISA investments are typically higher risk.

For instance, rather than completely replacing your current Stocks and Shares or Cash ISA, you can decide to add an IFISA to it. If a Cash ISA investor is interested in IFISAs, they can set aside a small sum in one to increase their investment portfolio's income without sacrificing too much security. Some investors just find IFISAs more engaging since they provide you the opportunity to get involved, choosing the companies they want to back, and picking investments they actually enjoy.

Investing in start-ups and early stage businesses involves risks, including illiquidity, lack of dividends, loss of investment and dilution, and it should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Investing in start-ups may expose the individual concerned to a significant risk of losing all of the money or other assets invested.
