Breaking news...the HMRC’s verdict on Kick-Out products

The HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has issued a new Bulletin regarding Kick-Out products
and has now confirmed that they qualify for the stocks and shares ISA.

We at Barclays Wealth welcome this news and appreciate the peace of mind it must provide
for intermediaries and clients alike.

Bulletin 21 clarifies the issue as follows:

“In Bulletin 19 we expressed the view that certain 'kick-out' plans did not meet the
requirements of ISA Regulation 7(6). We have received a number of representations
from managers and their advisers so we have taken the chance to look at this issue
again. We have now reconsidered and can confirm that kick-out plans where the trigger
event is conditional on a financial index reaching a pre-determined point, are within
Regulation 7(6) and are therefore qualifying investments for the stocks and shares ISA.”
