AJ Bell’s ISA is a stocks and shares ISA which means that you are invested in the stock market. AJ Bell does not offer cash ISA like Hargreaves Lansdown do with their Active Savings product. However, AJ Bell do pay interest on uninvested cash so if you want to keep some money outside the risks of the stock market you can earn interest on your cash.
