Guidance

National Savings and Investments (NS&I) is both a Government department and an Executive Agency of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. According to its website, NS&I is one of the largest savings organisations in the UK, with 25 million customers. Perhaps best known for premium bonds, the organisation also offers a range of other savings and investments to suit different people’s needs. All the products offer 100% security because NS&I is backed by HM Treasury.

Individuals can buy National Savings products online, but new investors will need to supply evidence of identity and address.

This guidance note gives an overview of NS&I products, but it is advisable to check the NS&I website as the products it offers are subject to change.

Giving investment advice

The usual health warning applies here: tax professionals cannot give investment advice unless they are authorised to do so by the Financial Conduct Authority. They can tell their clients about tax efficient investments but they must not recommend any based on their circumstances.

See the Regulated investment advice guidance note.
