MultiISA operate a Self-Invested ISA which offer much wider investment powers than are generally available for ISAs. The wider investment powers can allow investors to invest in a wide range of assets, including P2P qualifying investments across multiple platforms in an IFISA.
The company aim to lead the market by providing this service under a single ISA Management platform.
The ‘one of each type’ restriction on the IFISA has a huge impact on diversification. None of the mainstream ISA managers offer access to the IFISA, leaving investors the only option of subscribing to a platform’s IFISA directly and only subscribe to one platform per year.
Investors looking to diversify subscriptions across sectors such as Consumer, SME, Property, Secured, Unsecured etc, would take a number of years to achieve minimal diversification within their IFISA.
Investors have the ability to utilise their allowance across several platforms, £1,000 here, £1,000 there. Risking a small portion of their allowance on potentially more risky offerings with higher potential returns.
MultiISA provides the freedom to choose, without being tied by restrictions and not having to build a diversified portfolio across ‘safer’ options, which is likely to limit returns.
As an experienced investor, you will appreciate the importance of building a diversified portfolio in as tax efficient way as possible. We aim to help users diversify their investments, particularly in the Innovative Finance ISA, tax efficiently and with the freedom to select their own qualifying investments in an affordable way.

After spending years working in Financial Services, it was clear to me that there was a huge disparity between the advised and non-advised investor in terms of the services available. There are up to 10 million UK consumers who are no longer able or prepared to pay the cost of traditional advice services. However, no-one else will have their best interests as close to their heart, as themselves…
