ISAs

What’s an ISA

ISAs (Individual Savings Accounts) are a popular choice for many investors, whatever their financial goals. They’re tax-efficient and flexible - you can invest with a lump sum or start with small monthly amounts. The Ecclesiastical Stocks and Shares ISA can be used to invest in any of the Ecclesiastical Investment Funds.

Your investment ISA can be used to gain exposure to equities as well as government and corporate bonds. ISAs may offer higher returns than traditional bank or building society accounts, but due to stockmarket exposure, they have a higher element of risk.

Ecclesiastical offers Stocks and Shares ISAs only. We do not offer Cash ISAs. Please note that the tax efficiency mentioned may not continue in the future.

Here’s how you could benefit when you invest in the Ecclesiastical Stocks and Shares ISA:

ISAs are tax efficient – you pay no tax on either the income you receive or any capital gains that arise
award-winning performance – we’ve been helping people get more out of their money since 1919, and have successfully invested tens of millions of pounds
you can invest in an ISA for income, growth or both.

How much can I pay into an ISA?

you can invest by monthly direct debit - from as little as £25 up to £960, or
you can invest a lump sum - from £200 to a maximum of £11,520 per tax year.
