Child Trust Fund

Ipswich Building Society offers you a choice of either a Cash or Stakeholder Child Trust Fund.

Our Cash Child Trust Fund is a traditional building society account; the safest option for your voucher and savings. The investment performance of the account will depend on interest rates. It pays a tax-free, variable interest rate. Your child is guaranteed to get all their money back, plus interest, when they reach 18.

Stakeholder Option – Ipswich Building Society have chosen Family Investments to be our Stakeholder Child Trust Fund provider. Family Investments are the UK’s favourite Child Trust Fund provider. They look after the CTF accounts of more than half a million children and have been helping families invest for their future for over 30 years. Both their Stakeholder and Ethical Stakeholder Child Trust Funds, invest mainly in shares which means it is possible to receive back less than was paid in.
