The UK Treasury imposed 22% tax on cash interest from ISAs. Chancellor Reeves introduced the change as part of her reform bundle. It takes effect next tax year. HMRC claims the levy will broaden the tax base and boost more revenue. Critics argue it may scare off savers from ISAs and hurt household budgets. Financial analysts say investors might move to other options or trim contributions. Some economists question whether the plan will fix fairness or meet revenue targets.
