Transfer Junior ISAs and Child Trust Funds
Transferring cash and investments into our Junior ISA
Transfer existing Junior ISAs into the Bestinvest Junior ISA using the below form. If your child has a Child Trust Fund you can also transfer this to start taking advantage of a wider range of investment options. Whichever account your child has, transferring will not use up their annual Junior ISA allowance.
