The J.P. Morgan Junior ISA is a tax-efficient children’s savings account on which there is no income or capital gains tax to pay. It is designed for parents who want to put money aside for their children’s future. Please note that the level of tax benefits and liabilities will depend on individual circumstances and may change in the future.
Some of the key benefits include:
- Accessible – you can invest from £50 a month or with a £100 lump sum. What’s more, no initial charges are levied by the J.P. Morgan funds and there are no annual account charges either.
- Wide investment choice – benefit from the J.P. Morgan extensive range and investments from other leading UK fund managers as well as FTSE all-share equities, ETFs and bonds.
- Online convenience – manage the child’s Junior ISA easily, quickly and when it suits you.
- Award winning fund manager – J.P. Morgan Asset Management is the only fund manager to have received the Gold Standard Award nine years in a row (as at December 2011).
- Tax efficient – there is no income or capital gains tax to pay.
The J.P. Morgan Junior ISA is held in the child’s name but the registered contact decides where and when to invest. However, no money can be withdrawn from the Junior ISA until the child reaches age 18 (except on death or terminal illness of the child), thereby ensuring maximum growth potential. The registered contact(s) are not liable to income or capital gains tax on any investments held in the Junior ISA.
Please note that a Child Trust Fund (CTF) can’t currently be transferred to a Junior ISA and if a child has a CTF they are not eligible for a Junior ISA.
