How this is worked out

Each year's contribution is added at the start of the year and grows at your chosen rate. Growth inside an ISA is free of income tax and CGT. The annual allowance is £20,000.

Tips

  • Pay off high-interest debt before saving beyond a basic emergency fund.
  • Use your £20,000 ISA allowance each year where you can – it doesn't roll over.
  • Check whether your savings rate beats inflation; if not, your money is losing value.
