Investing for children

It’s a wonderful feeling to open doors for the next generation. Setting aside money for their future can make that a reality. That’s why long-term investment plans for children can be so appealing - they give your money the potential to grow alongside your loved ones.

Nurturing future generations

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, extended family member, or a friend, you can save and invest wisely and tax-efficiently for a younger person you care about. However, the best approach could depend on your relationship with them, their age, and the level of access you want them to have.

The tax treatment of all investments depends upon individual circumstances and the levels and basis of taxation may change in the future. Investors should discuss their financial arrangements with their own tax adviser before investing.
