About IFISA:
Own Your Future

‌Unlike traditional cash ISAs or stocks and shares ISAs, an Innovative Finance ISA focuses on peer-to-peer lending and bond/debenture investment opportunities. This means investors have the potential to earn higher interest rates compared to traditional investment options.

The Innovative Finance ISA was introduced by the UK government in 2016 to promote peer-to-peer lending and provide investors with an alternative and potentially more lucrative investment avenue. By investing through an IFISA, individuals can support businesses and individuals in need of financing, while potentially earning tax-free returns on their investments. ‌

Whether you're a seasoned investor or new to the financial world, an Innovative Finance ISA presents an attractive opportunity to diversify your investment portfolio and potentially increase your earnings in a tax-efficient manner.

When it comes to investing within an Innovative Finance ISA, there are a range of options available to suit different investment strategies and risk appetites. Two common investment options within an IFISA are loan-based securities and asset-backed securities.

Security

Loan-based securities are investments that involve lending money to individuals or businesses in return for interest payments. This type of investment can provide a fixed income stream over a predefined period. Some IFISA providers offer platforms that allow investors to choose specific loans to fund, providing a more hands-on approach to lending.

Returns

Asset-backed securities are investments that are backed by a pool of physical assets, such as property or equipment. These investments provide potential returns through rental income, capital appreciation, or a combination of both. Asset-backed securities diversify investment portfolios and may offer a degree of stability due to the underlying tangible assets.

Exit

For loan-based securities, investors typically have the option to sell their loans on a secondary market, if available, allowing for early exit before the loan term ends. This provides flexibility and access to capital if needed. For asset-backed securities exit strategies might include the sale of the underlying assets or receive payouts from the maturity of the investment.
