Episode notes

Welcome to the first episode of season 3 of The Stocks and Savings Podcast! As always, you're joined by Andreea & Jamie, the 2 Chartered Accountants & couple behind the Instagram financial blog @stocksandsavings.

As we approach the end of the tax year, we're looking at ways to make the most out of our money. One such way is to save and invest tax free using an Individual Savings Account (ISA).

In this episode, we'll talk about what an ISA is, the main types of ISAs (Cash ISA, Stocks & Shares ISA, Lifetime ISA, Innovative Finance ISA and Junior ISA) and we'll also discuss some popular ISA providers in the UK. We hope that this episode helps you choose the right ISA for you and the right provider.
