MoneyWeek news quiz: Will Reeves force you to buy UK shares?
Rumours the chancellor will introduce a minimum UK share requirement in ISAs surfaced this week. Test your knowledge of the headlines in MoneyWeek’s news quiz.
With the Autumn Budget just over a month away, rumours of what will be announced are starting to ramp up.
At the start of the week, reports suggested the chancellor was considering introducing a minimum UK shareholding requirement for ISAs, effectively forcing stocks and shares ISA investors to put a portion of their money into UK equities.
Other reports suggest taxes are likely to rise in the Budget as GDP growth remains sluggish, and inflation remains above the Bank of England’s 2% target.
