Mini Cash ISA Limits

104 33

    When Introduced

    • ISAs were introduced in April 1999. Initially, mini and cash ISAs were available. This distinction was abolished at the end of the 2007/2008 tax year, and the only difference now is between a Cash ISA and a Stocks and Shares ISA.

    ISA Allowance Limits

    • For the UK tax year ending April 5, 2011, the maximum amount that can be invested in a Cash ISA is £5,100 per person. The maximum that can be invested in a Stocks and Shares ISA is £10,200 per person.

    Future Allowance Limits

    • In March 2010, the UK government announced that after April 2011 ISA limits will rise each year in line with inflation.

    ISA Transfers

    • ISAs can be transferred from one manager or bank to another. The transfer, which is usually free, needs to be done between the managers. If a saver transfers the money himself, it is treated as a withdrawal, and the saver is unable to reinvest the withdrawn amount in another ISA if his annual allowance limit has been reached.
