Fidelity Junior ISA
Whether you’re looking to put aside a lump sum to enable your child to get on the property ladder, or save monthly to fund the increasingly expensive cost of a university education, a junior ISA can make saving for the big things simple.
You can split your child’s annual allowance between a Junior Cash ISA and a Junior Stocks and Shares ISA or in to one of these types of accounts. You can’t have more than one account of the same type.
Fidelity offer a Junior Stocks and Shares ISA. While there are opportunities for much higher returns than with a Stocks and Shares ISA, the value of investments can go down as well as up so your child may not get back the amount you invest.
A distinct advantage of the Fidelity junior ISA is that it allows you to hold your investments in cash. This means if you’re concerned about the market’s prospects you can shelter your money in cash, then move it quickly and easily to investments when you believe the markets have more potential
