The Lifetime ISA was introduced to help younger generations save both for their first home and later life. It has been available since April 2017. Individuals can subscribe up to £4,000 a year into a Lifetime ISA, receiving a 25% government bonus.

Since its introduction, monthly digital reporting to HMRC by Lifetime ISA providers indicate that over 330,000 people have invested in a Lifetime ISA.
