Our Tax Free Flexible Plan

Tax-free in addition to your ISA

Tax-free investments with added flex

The Tax Free Flexible Plan is a 15 year tax-free investment plan for adults. It aims to give your investment long-term growth potential, as well as a tax-free lump sum after 10 years. It’s flexible too, so if you need your money earlier than expected, you can cash in your investment plan.
