Why You Should Consider an ISA Over a Pension

What Is an ISA?

ISAs are an all-purpose savings or investment account, which can be used to put money away, either for retirement or for any other financial goal. They come with great tax benefits. Money in an ISA grows tax free in the same way that money in a pension grows tax free. Except the ISA has the added bonus that money isn’t taxed when you decide to take it out.
