It’s not long before the door slams shut on your chance to use this year’s Isa allowance.

It’s always best not to leave Isa saving or investing until the last month of the tax year, but many of us will do so.

If you do end up fixing your Isa against the deadline, it’s definitely wise not to leave it to the last week – or even the final few days.

So, here is our special Isa podcast – with a comfortable three weeks to spare before the 5 April tax year end. In it, Simon Lambert, Rachel Rickard Straus and Georgie Frost dive into everything you need to know about Isas, from cash, to stocks and shares, and Innovative to Lifetime.

The podcast tackles the basics and also tips for those who are experienced Isa savers or investors.

It also looks at why investing is the best way to get inflation-beating returns over the long term, how savers can eke some precious extra interest from accounts, and why an Isa is worth having.
