How to transfer from one HL client to another
Here's how to transfer cash or investments from your Fund and Share Account or Stocks and Shares ISA to someone else's Fund and Share Account.
Before you start
- You can transfer investments or cash from a Fund and Share Account or Stocks and Shares ISA to someone else's Fund and Share Account.
- The person you’re transferring to will need to have a Fund and Share Account open before you start the transfer.
- You'll need the details of the person you’re transferring to, including their name, date of birth, postcode and client number.
- If you’re transferring from a Stocks and Shares ISA, you should know that outside of an ISA, investments could be subject to income tax and capital gains tax. Tax rules can change, and benefits depend on your circumstances.
