Maximum Junior ISA Allowance 2014

The Junior ISA allowance was launched in November 2011, the new Junior ISA allowance can be put into a cash ISA and a stocks and shares ISA, in whatever proportion the account manager wishes.

 

Intended to fill the gap left by the scrapping of Child Trust Funds, the Junior ISA allowance offers parents a tax-free way of saving and investing for their child's future. In the 2011/12 Budget, the Government confirmed its plans to see the Junior ISA be made available by the end of the year. The junior ISA limit is currently £,4,128 for the 2017/18.
