UK Trade and Investment has a duty to British businesses to provide them with all of the advice and information they need to succeed in foreign markets. Human rights guidance is a core part of that.

As with any new EU legislation, HM Treasury engaged in discussions with the European Commission and other EU member states during the negotiation of the Deposit Guarantee Schemes Directive, and following its adoption in order to manage the transposition effectively. HM Treasury laid a statutory instrument to ensure that UK depositors would not be exposed to a sudden reduction in the level of protection to which they are entitled from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
FSCS compensation is funded by levies on regulated financial services firms, within a limit which is set by the Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority.<\/p>

Large investment funds effectively comprise the investments of individuals, whether via their pension funds, insurance contracts, or other savings and investment products. The decision to invest in companies\u2019 shares directly, or indirectly through a fund, is a matter for individual investors.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government has taken a variety of steps to encourage individual saving, and retail investment in shares in particular. For example, we have:<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
- Reduced the starting rate of income tax for savings;<\/p>
<\/p>
- Increased the maximum annual amount which can be invested in an Individual Savings Account (ISA) to £15,240 in the 2015-16 tax year, and provided savers with greater flexibility to withdraw their money and put it back in to an ISA within the same year, without losing their tax benefits;<\/p>
<\/p>
- Introduced, from April 2016, a new tax-free Personal Savings Allowance of £1,000 (or £500 for higher rate taxpayers) of interest earned on savings (taking 95 per cent of taxpayers out of savings tax altogether) as well as a new £5,000 tax-free dividend allowance for all taxpayers;<\/p>
<\/p>
- Allowed shares from growth markets such as the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) to be held in ISAs - making investment in the growth markets easier;<\/p>
<\/p>
- Abolished stamp duty on AIM shares, attracting further investment into growing companies and reducing the cost of raising capital for those companies.<\/p>
