About this episode

The episode discusses upcoming changes to ISA tax rules effective from April 2027 and their implications for investors.

In a big shake-up to ISAs, it was recently announced that a new flat-rate charge of 22% will be applied on interest paid on cash within a stocks and shares ISA from the start of the next tax year on 6 April 2027. The change will be implemented at the same time as other previously flagged changes, including a lower cash ISA allowance of £12,000 for those under the age of 65, and a ban on transferring a stocks and shares ISA to a cash ISA. To unpick all the details, including what the rules say about money market funds, and to run through the implications for investors, Kyle is joined by Craig Rickman, personal finance editor at interactive investor.
