@antonia_investing: The pension vs ISA question has a new answer in 2026. From April 2027, unspent pension pots will be subject to inheritance tax for the first time, removing one of the main reasons people historically prioritised the pension as a wealth transfer vehicle. The ISA has no equivalent change coming. For most people building wealth, the order is still: claim your employer pension match first, then build your ISA alongside it. But if estate planning is a factor for you, the calculus has shifted. This video is for information and education only. It is not personal financial advice. Tax rules can change and their impact depends on your individual circumstances. If you are unsure what is right for you, please speak to a regulated financial adviser.

the thing I hate about pensions is the goal post change constantly

Pension is taxed when you start to draw from it, but a isa is tax free when you draw from it ?

This will mostly impact Defined Contribution (DC) pensions, if you have a Defined Benefit (DB) pension like a Final Salary, then you would be unaffected by this IHT change.

the change to IHT on pensions has zero relevance or impact in relation to pension vs isa
