As with all investments, there is risk involved with a Share Dealing ISA. It’s important to remember that the value of investments and the income from them can fall and rise. Before taking out any investment product, you’ll need to be clear with how you feel about risk and how able you are to take losses.
A dividend is a payment made from a company to those who have bought and hold their shares, on a set date, usually when a company has made a profit.
If you do not invest within an ISA, you may pay tax on any amount over the dividend allowance.
Capital Gains Tax is tax you pay on any gains you’ve made from selling assets, such as shares.
If you invest through an ISA, you will not pay this tax on any gains made through your investments.
