Is margin trading allowed in an ISA account?

Margin trading is not permitted within a Stocks and Shares ISA.

HMRC rules require that all investments held within an ISA must be fully paid for using available cash in the account. Borrowing to invest (also known as leverage or margin) is not allowed under ISA regulations.

This ensures your ISA remains compliant with the UK’s tax-free savings rules.
