In addition to the amounts due to us (order fee) for the provision of our Share Investing Services, you will be charged for payment of the following costs in case of trading of ETFs and Stocks listed on the London Stock Exchange:
-Stamp Duty is a tax that is charged on the purchase of shares in the UK. The rate of Stamp Duty is 0.5% of the purchase price of the shares
-PTM (Panel of Takeovers and Mergers) is a £1 government levy that is automatically charged to investors when they buy or sell shares for over £10,000.
Foreign Stocks
If held within an ISA, there will be no UK Capital Gains Tax or income tax on the proceeds from foreign stocks. Your only tax loss will be any withholding tax (WHT) deducted at source in the country where the stock is listed. As such, there is no exemption from WHT by using an ISA.
Ongoing charges for funds
Ongoing charges are the annual costs of owning an investment fund, such as an ETF or mutual fund. They are expressed as a percentage of the fund’s assets and are deducted from the fund’s net asset value (NAV) on a daily basis.
