A Junior ISA (also known as a JISA) is a Junior Individual Savings Account for under 18s. It’s a tax-free way to put something aside for university, save for their first car or just help them achieve their goals. Their Junior ISA allowance can be invested into a variety of investment options.
JISAs have an annual limit on how much can be invested. Between 6th April 2018 and 5th April 2019 the Junior ISA allowance is £4,260.
Your child can have just one type of Junior ISA, or split the allowance over both types. At Willis Owen we only offer Stocks & Shares Junior ISAs. Read on to see if our Junior ISAs are the right option for your child, and take a look at the key features of Stocks & Shares ISAs and Cash ISAs.
