The highest rate ISAs are stocks and shares ISAs, which offer higher potential returns than cash ISAs because they depend on thr performance of a stock market. However, this means they also come with higher risk. To find the best high interest ISA and one that suits your requirements, it is important to compare a number of deals and make an informed decision. ISAs are Individual Savings Accounts that allow you to save money and earn interest or gain growth returns without paying tax.

ISAs vary greatly in what they offer, such as:

 Important Risk Information:

This website contains information only and does not constitute advice or a personal recommendation in any way whatsoever. The value of investments and income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the full amount invested.

Investments in Stocks & Shares ISAs do not contain the same degree of capital security as investments in deposits. Stocks and shares ISAs are designed as medium to long term investments of, for example, five years or more. The tax efficiency of ISAs is based on current tax law and there is no guarantee that tax rules will stay the same in the future.

Different types of investment carry different levels of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Please ensure that you read the Important Risk Information for further details. Prior to making any decision to invest, you should ensure that you are familiar with the risks associated with a particular investment and should read the product literature. If you are in any doubt as to the suitability of a particular investment, both in respect of its objectives and its risk profile, you should seek independent financial advice.
