Dumb question time, but is there an equivalent of a fixed rate savings option available within a SIPP or S&S ISA? Somewhere to park some funds where (for whatever reason) you don't want them invested in shares, but do want some kind of return. Thanks

Tax on Savings Interest in Unusual Circumstances
Hi, I’ve read the guide on this site relating to tax on savings interest. I understand that if I go over all of my various allowances, my tax code for next year will be changed in order to collect the tax due.

Taxation of Wise "interest", also Trading212
I turned on the "interest" option in my Wise account last year and received £100 or so in 2023/24 (in pounds and euros). I've just received a tax statement for the year, 23 pages of it. This lists lots of acquisitions and disposals of the underlying assets. The summary says that none of the £100 is income, it's all "Non-UK…

When I bought my first shares the price was at all time highs but I didn't really care because it's long term and I was under the impression that with cost…

They…

Trump effect on UK interest rates?
If (and obviously this is all hypothetical!) Trump does indeed go down the route of tariffs on imports and increasing US borrowing to fund tax cuts, is this likely to lead to inflationary pressures both in the US and beyond, and thereby increase the likelihood of interest rates staying higher (or reducing less?!) during…
