New ISA transfer rules: could you benefit?
Transfer now in 3 easy stepsNew rules mean ISA providers must now allow stock transfers. This means you can transfer your existing ISAs into your Vantage Account without your investments being sold and bought back.
Whilst some companies already allowed stock transfers, many such as Fidelity and Cofunds previously would only transfer certain investments as cash. This is where your investments are sold and the cash is transferred to the new provider, preserving the tax wrapper.
The new rules are significant as you can now choose how your investments are transferred, usually at little or no cost, so why not choose the best home for all your investments?
Transferring your ISAs to Vantage could save you time and money, and will make your investments easier for you to manage.

The rule change also applies to non-ISA investments (funds and investment trusts) so you can transfer most investments into your Vantage Account without having to sell them first.

Important information
Please remember, the value of tax savings will depend on your circumstances and tax rules can change over time. Investments can go down in value as well as up, so you might get back less than you invest.
