Mortgage support
Worried about paying your mortgage? We have various ways that we can help you.
Costs and Charges
-
Stamp Duty
When you buy a UK stock, you’ll pay Stamp Duty to the Government. Stamp duty is 0.5% of the value of the investments you buy (1% on Irish stocks) and you won’t pay any Stamp Duty on AIM stocks or Exchange Traded Funds.
Spanish Transaction Tax
Spanish Transaction Tax (0.2%) is an additional tax payment when you buy some Spanish stocks e.g. Banco Santander and International Consolidated Airlines Group.
French Transaction Tax
French Transaction Tax (0.3%) is an additional tax payment when you buy some French stocks e.g. Total Energies and Renault.
Italian Transaction Tax
Italian Transaction Tax (0.2%) is an additional tax payment when you buy some Italian stocks e.g. Enel SPA and Unicredit SPA.
PTM Levy
Any trade over £10,000 will also be liable for a levy of £1 which is paid to the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (PTM).
-
We do not pay interest rates on cash held in our Share Dealing Account, Share Dealing ISA, Investment Account or Investment ISA.
There is currently no requirement for you to hold a minimum amount in cash, although you should ensure that there is sufficient cash held to cover charges when they are due for payment.
