  • Three ways to build an ISA portfolio from scratch

    Putting together a portfolio to weather different conditions is no easy task, even in calmer times. For beginner investors it can be particularly puzzling, given there are thousands of funds to choose from.

    To help cut through the noise, interactive investor’s Dave Baxter has put together three hypothetical portfolios for different risk levels: cautious, balanced and adventurous. Dave joins Kyle to explain his choices and how he arrived at the mix of assets. The duo also discuss ‘hands-off’ funds for investors on the lookout for low maintenance options.

    The three hypothetical portfolios can be found in the links below:

    • How to build a cautious ISA portfolio
    • How to build a medium-risk ISA portfolio
    • How to build a higher-risk ISA portfolio

  • How to get your finances in shape ahead of big rule changes

    The new tax year brings fresh annual allowances for ISAs and SIPPs. While it always makes sense to invest in a tax-efficient manner, the mantra of ‘use it or lose it’ has arguably never been as important. This is because from the start of the next tax year (6 April 2027) major changes come into force, with unspent pension funds subject to inheritance tax, a reduction in the cash ISA annual allowance to £12,000 for those under the age of 65, and savings tax rates increasing.
    To discuss the changes and how people can use this tax year to plan ahead, Kyle is joined by Craig Rickman, personal finance editor at interactive investor.
