Is your ISA at risk of a 40% Inheritance Tax charge?

If you are one of those people who have been saving into an ISA throughout your working life, then you are most likely to be in the fortunate position of having grown this investment into a significant asset. Investing into an ISA was a good move as it offers you tax-free growth and income on your savings. So far so good. However, if you are at the stage in life where you ought to be considering your estate for Inheritance Tax (IHT) then you may have an issue.

An ISA can be liable to a 40% claim by the taxman through Inheritance Tax at the time of your death, significantly reducing the value of your estate and the amount of assets that will pass to your loved ones.

What can you do about this?

One proven and simple solution is to transfer your existing ISA into an AIM IHT ISA managed by an experienced investment team. This could allow you to:

• mitigate 100% potential Inheritance Tax if held for two years and on death
• benefit from the leading growth potential offered by AIM as one of the world’s leading growth markets
• continue to benefit from tax-free income and growth within the ISA wrapper
• retain control of your assets- you can make withdrawals if needed
