Qualified UK residents can set up an Individual Savings Account and inject funds into it yearly. It gives people the chance to invest or save money without having to pay taxes on the interest, dividends, or capital gains they make while having an account.

Investors can boost savings and investments while trimming tax liability by using the various types of ISA available.
Types of ISA
Cash ISAs
Those who would rather protect their savings and have a poor tolerance for investing risk might benefit most from cash ISAs. Depending on your needs for liquidity and savings, you can select between fixed-term, notice, or quick access choices, and they usually offer a fixed or variable interest rate.
Stocks and Shares ISAs
Investing in stocks, bonds, and funds is possible with this type. Although the value may increase or decrease, it is a risky investment for long-term growth. One major benefit is that the money you make is free of tax.
Innovative Finance ISAs
An IFISA allows you to lend money using peer-to-peer lending or crowdfunding sites. It can yield larger profits but is riskier than traditional savings. Interest is not taxed, but insurance does not always safeguard it.
Lifetime ISAs
This account allows you to save for your first home or retirement. You can contribute up to 4,000 pounds per year, according to the government, and they’ll top it up with a 25% bonus. The downside is the penalties levied if you withdraw the money early for other reasons.
Junior ISAs
These are accounts which parents can open and fund for their under-18 children. The children cannot touch the ISA until they’re of legal age.
