Stocks & Shares ISAs
Investing in a stocks & shares ISA gives you access to a diversified range of investments. And this gives you the potential for a greater return than you might get from a cash ISA. Of course, along with the potential for greater returns comes an increased risk as you may not get back what you invest. Is investing worth the risk? You can read our article on risk to find out more.

When investing, bear in mind that the value of investments and any income they generate can go down as well as up. This means you may not get back what you invest.
Investing should be seen as a medium-to-long-term commitment so you should aim to invest for at least 5 years.
Remember, the value of any tax benefits described depends on your individual circumstances, and tax rules may change in the future.
Please bear in mind
Investment risk: All investments carry some risk. The value of investments (and any income received from them) can fall as well as rise and you may not get back what you invested. For some investments this can also happen as a result of exchange rate fluctuations as shares and funds may have an exposure to overseas markets.
Time commitment: Most investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment; this means you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.
Tax benefits: The value of any tax benefits described depends upon your individual circumstances - tax rules may change in future.
Other risks: In addition to the risks mentioned above, there are other risks associated with investing in our products. These are outlined in the Key Features Document for each product and, where applicable, in the Key Investor Information Document for the underlying fund(s), which you should read carefully before applying.
