EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Individual Savings Account Regulations 1998 (S.I.1998/1870: "the principal Regulations"). The principal effect of the amendments is to ensure that funds of funds schemes which invest in stocks or shares of UCITS which comply with Financial Service Authority rules also meet the individual savings account requirements.
Regulation 1 provides for citation and commencement.
Regulation 2 introduces the amendments.
Regulation 3 amends the definitions in regulation 2(1) of the principal Regulations. The definition of "Chapter 5 UCITS" is substituted by a new definition which refers to the Financial Services Authority's new set of rules, the New Collective Investment Schemes Sourcebook, which will run in tandem with the existing Collective Investment Schemes Sourcebook until 12th February 2007 and which will apply exclusively thereafter.
These Regulations do not impose any new costs on business.
