Why You SHOULDN'T Use A Stocks & Shares ISA

Показать описание
*IMPORTANT UPDATE*
The UK Government has slashed the 0% Capital Gains amount from £12,300 to £6,000 in 2023/2024 tax year and down to £3,000 the following year. This significantly affects the points discussed in this video, but for very low amounts invested initially, where even £3,000 is an exceptionally high gain relative to money put in, the video still explains a useful point.
In this video I will explain why you shouldn't use a Stocks & Shares ISA.
Stocks and Shares ISAs are a very popular way to invest in the UK because they mean you don't have to pay capital gains and dividend tax.
And most people automatically assume that they HAVE to use a Stocks and Shares ISA to invest - otherwise the taxman will decimate your portfolio.
But the UK also has very favourable 0% tax bands on capital gains and dividend tax which mean a Stocks & Shares ISA is not really going to be relevant for many people.
And if you are investing smaller amounts, a General Investing account can be a better option.
This is because Stocks & Shares ISAs are generally more expensive - whatever it is that you invest into - ETFs, US stocks, UK stocks, dividend stocks or anything else, there is usually a cheaper way to do it outside an ISA than through a Stocks and Shares ISA account.
And especially if you are starting out, a free or cheap General Investing account can be a great way to try things out and learn the ropes without having to pay more.
And you can always switch to using a Stocks and Shares account later if your investments grow - your annual ISA allowance is £20,000 which is plenty for most people.
