What is a General Investment Account (GIA)?

A General Investment Account allows you to invest outside of tax wrappers such as personal pensions and Stocks & Shares ISAs. It offers no tax relief but you only pay tax on gains above £12,300, subject to having no other investments.

There’s no annual limit on how much you can contribute, however we limit contributions to £85,000 per week. You can find more info on our GIA here.
