Cash ISA Allowance

The cash ISA allowance increases with inflation, so each tax year it will be higher than the last, depending on the level of inflation in September of the previous year. This means that you'll be able to make the most of your tax-efficient cash ISA allowance even more than ever, protecting even more of your money from income tax. The cash ISA allowance for the 2012/13 tax year is £5,640.
