An ISA, or Individual Savings Account, is a tax-efficient wrapper for your savings and investments. It means you don't pay tax on the interest, dividends, or capital gains earned within the ISA, up to a certain annual limit. There are different types, like Cash ISAs and Stocks and Shares ISAs, each with their own rules and benefits.
