Ponance Bank Invest Junior ISA

Help give your kids a flying start in adult life

Invest for your child's future

Most 18-year-olds can only dream of saving towards a first house deposit, or being able to leave university debt free. With a Ponance Bank Invest Junior ISA, we could help make those dreams a reality. Start investing little and often and build for the future. Choose from five ready-made funds managed by Coutts investment managers, so you don't have to. 

Why choose Junior ISA?

  • No Income or Capital Gains Tax to be paid 
  • The Junior ISA allowance is £9000 per child for the current tax year
  • Invest an initial lump sum from £50, or set up a regular monthly contribution from just £10
  • Top up any time from £10

Eligibility

  • If you have parental responsibility for a child you can open a Ponance Bank Invest Junior ISA for them if they are under age 14 and living in the UK
  • The person applying on behalf of the child must be aged 18 or over
  • The account will be in the name of your child, but cannot be withdrawn until they turn 18 
  • If your child already has a Child Trust Fund (CTF) or a Stocks and Shares Junior ISA held elsewhere and you want to open a Ponance Bank Invest Junior ISA, you will need to transfer it to us first
  • If your child already holds a Ponance Bank Invest Junior ISA with us before October 2019, you can find out about options available to you here
