Who can open a Wrap Junior ISA

A parent or guardian can open a Junior ISA on behalf of a Junior and they will become the Registered Contact.

To apply for a Junior ISA, a close family member of the Junior must be an existing Wrap or Elevate account holder. A close family member is a parent or guardian, grandparent or sibling.

Things to be aware of

  1. We are using the functionality for Wrap Stocks & Shares ISAs to set up the Junior ISA.
  2. As Wrap accounts are normally for clients aged 18 and above, we will use a mock date of birth and National Insurance number to set the Wrap account up.  A copy of the web form will be stored in the Client Document Library with the Junior’s correct details.
  3. The Registered Contact must sign the Wrap Terms and Conditions on behalf of the Junior. If the Registered Contact wishes to sign terms electronically, check our list of approved e-signature providers.
  4. We will set up the Junior ISA and let you know once it's ready to be used. You are then responsible for setting up any subsequent deposits or transfer instructions on the Junior ISA.
  5. The Junior will be the beneficial owner of the investments of the Wrap Junior ISA.
  6. On the Wrap account, client portal and platform outputs/reports, the product name will show as the Stocks & Shares ISA.  The account name for the Wrap account will include a reference to Junior ISA to identify the account as being a Junior ISA. 
  7. The ISA declaration automatically produced by the Wrap platform and sent to the Registered Contact is only suitable for customers who are over 18.  You should inform the Registered Contact that it can be ignored and that the correct Junior ISA declaration is available in the Client Document Library.
  8. Please note, an illustration will be generated when the Junior ISA is initially opened reflecting the standard platform charge. Once the Junior ISA is set-up, any future illustrations generated will reflect the correct platform charge (0%). You will then be able to run an existing business illustration based on the initial cash allocation; and once investments have been made in the Junior ISA, to show the investments held by the Junior.
  9. Any illustrations generated on the Junior ISA will not take into account that our platform charge will apply when the Junior turns 18.  You should run a revised illustration at that point.
  10. The Charges information document will be produced when you make an investment in the Junior ISA.
