NCB stockbrokers and Hibernian Life & Pensions have introduced a new tax efficient investment portfolio bond, the Advantage Bond. The "life wrapper" bond aims to allow individuals to manage their personal investment portfolio within the structure of a life assurance policy. Tax is payable only on the withdrawal of funds from the account, therefore dividend income and all gains accrue tax free within the bond under the new gross roll up regime.
