Dear IG,
A third of my share options have now vested at the private company I work for. To exercise these, it's 0.005p per share.
The shares are at a low value right now, and I wanted to buy them, pay less tax than I would when the shares (I believe) rise to a higher value, and put them straight into my ISA trading account for tax free gains.
However, is there a way of exercising those share options straight into my ISA trading account with you? Is there any way I can leverage the £20k per year limit of that ISA when it comes to share options? Your advice as to the art-of-the-possible on this topic would be great.
Thanks,
Tom
