Funding your ISA

Use cash or transfer shares you already own. Please note: you will need to sell existing shares and buy them back within the ISA wrapper - a process called 'BED&ISA'. You may be liable for tax on any Capital Gains made before the shares are held within the ISA wrapper as well as any other costs arising from the sale of the shares.

Selling shares?

You can choose to leave any cash in your ISA, re-invest or withdraw it, subject to current regulations.
