........ Jason Hollands, managing director of Bestinvest, noted: “Tax-free ISAs are more important than ever before for investors because of the steep cuts the chancellor has already announced to both the annual dividend allowance and capital gains exemptions, both of which are set to halve again next April.
“The adult ISA allowance, however, has been frozen at £20,000 since the 2017/18 tax-year. We would like to see the real value of the allowance restored with an increase to at least £25,760 to adjust for the effect of CPI inflation since April 2017.”...............can't see this happening....gla

V interested to see any positive news regarding isas......
...central bankers are still determined to create caution/fear in the markets.....however although inflation is their no1 concern there is now a growing worry of stunting any growth.....cannot see anymore rate rises this year.....rates to stay around the current levels for longer than anticipated & "we won't hesitate to raise rates if necessary"..will possibly be the overall message ....imo
....all eyes on J Hunt and the autumn statement next wed ..will be watching with great interest...... this was a better week all round ....gla..
Investors acquired a record £93bn of UK government bonds during a sale today, it has been reported, as investors bet that interest rates have peaked.
The sale of 20-year gilts fetched the largest ever level of orders for UK sovereign bonds, excluding the first ever sale of “green bonds” back in 2021, according to Bloomberg News.
The sale of the bonds, which mature in 2043, was conducted by Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, Morgan Stanley and UBS.
The race to snap up bonds comes as investors bet that interest rates will begin to fall next year amid falling inflation.......
