Episode notes

In this episode of Invest with Wilvo, host Wilvo discusses the importance of taking advantage of the tax year-end opportunities, specifically focusing on ISAs (Individual Savings Accounts) and SIPPs (Self-Invested Personal Pensions). With the tax year ending on April 5th, he explains how to maximise contributions, highlighting the benefits of tax-free growth and the flexibility of both ISAs and SIPPs. Wilvo also shares his personal experience with platforms like Trading212 and Interactive Investor, and discusses how these tools can make investing easier for beginners.


Key Takeaways

Maximising Tax Year-End Opportunities: The end of the tax year offers a chance to contribute to ISAs and SIPPs, taking advantage of tax-free growth and tax relief on contributions.


ISA vs SIPP: Learn the key differences between ISAs and SIPPs, and when to use each depending on your financial goals. ISAs offer tax-free withdrawals and flexibility, while SIPPs provide tax relief on contributions but restrict access until retirement age.


Recommended Investment Platforms: Wilvo shares his preferred platforms—Trading212 for its simplicity and Interactive Investor for SIPPs—along with how to get fee-free years and sign-up bonuses.


Using Research Tools: Wilvo talks about Seeking Alpha Premium and TrendSpider as valuable tools for market analysis and stock picking, particularly in volatile times.


Key Moments

"You can potentially invest £40,000 into your ISA over the next seven days by using both this year’s and next year’s allowance."


"SIPPs are great for long-term retirement planning, offering tax relief on contributions, but access is restricted until you’re 55."


"Using tools like Seeking Alpha Premium can really help you find the stocks you wouldn’t typically come across."


"In the current market, I’m choosing to focus on China and European stocks, as they’ve been outperforming US stocks year-to-date."
