Tax-efficient ways to save for your goals
Important information - please keep in mind that the value of investments can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you invest. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and all tax rules may change in the future. Withdrawals from a Junior ISA will not be possible until the child reaches age 18. You can't normally access money in a pension until age 55 (57 from 2028). This information is not a personal recommendation for any particular investment. If you are unsure about the suitability of an investment you should speak to one of Fidelity’s advisers or an authorised financial adviser of your choice.
Don't pay more tax than you need to
An ISA or Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) are both tax-efficient ways to save as they each have their own valuable annual tax allowances. But how you choose to divide your money between them can depend on your future goals.
An ISA can be used to save for all sorts of goals as it's easy to access, while a SIPP is typically for retirement, as withdrawals from a SIPP will not normally be possible until you reach age 55 (57 from 2028).
We offer an award-winning Stocks and Shares ISA and SIPP, together with a Junior ISA and Junior SIPP.
Below we'll take you through the differences between Fidelity's ISA and SIPP.
Make the most of your tax allowances
ISA and pension allowances reset at the start of every tax year, which runs from 6 April to 5 April the following year. These allowances are separate, so you can put money in both types of accounts. You can also save for a child's future by investing in a Junior ISA and a Junior SIPP, which have their own tax benefits. If you’ve used your full pension and ISA allowances this tax year, you can still invest in our Investment Account.
