Junior Isa & Childrens Pension

Hi, what are the annual limits I can put in for my child if I were to open both a jISA & a childrens stakeholder pension. Is it £3,600 gross in total per year or can I put £3,600 gross in each per year, ir total of £7,200? thanks

    They're completely different products - £3,600 in each per year.

    Be aware of the limitations though, as they're at two extremes of the spectrum regarding timescales.
    (Currently) the minimum age for accessing a pension is 55, and the minimum age for a JISA is 18, although IIRC the child can control the investments from 16 onwards.
    I am an IFA, but nothing I say on this forum constitutes financial advice. Always draw your own conclusions and always do your own research.
