Sustainability Investing FAQs - Ethical ISAs

About Clim8 Invest
Clim8 Invest's purpose
Our mission is to have a positive impact on climate change, by moving billions of pounds of investments out of fossil fuels and into clean energy and truly green, sustainable companies.
Our platform aims to provide a simple way to invest in multi-asset portfolios (shares, collective investment schemes, ETFs and bonds), with a focus on sectors that we believe will play a significant role in tackling climate change, including clean energy, clean technology, sustainable food, clean water, smart mobility and recycling.
What products do you currently offer?
We currently offer two main investment accounts: General Investment Account GIA, and Stocks and Shares ISA (Individual Savings Account). We’re continuously working on adding more products and functionalities to our app.
Are there eligibility criteria for opening an account?
You need to be 18 years of age or older and be a UK resident to open an account.
What happens if I have moved abroad, outside the UK?
For now, you will need to hold a bank account and address within the UK and deposit in sterling.
If you have moved abroad outside the UK, and you are no longer paying tax within the UK, you can open a GIA with us provided you hold a UK bank account and valid passport as well as reside within EEA countries. You can also combine/transfer any current ISAs you have with other providers from previous tax years (not the current tax year) but cannot pay into an ISA for tax years when you reside outside of the UK.
How do I open a Clim8 Invest account?
You can download our app from Apple Store or Google Play, sign up in a few minutes and start investing sustainably! In order to open an account, you need to be 18 years of age or older and a UK resident.
Do you have a web app?
At the moment, we only have an app for mobile devices (available for both Apple and Android users).
Do you give financial advice?
We do not give financial advice. We do assess the suitability of our services for your circumstances and needs, as well as your attitude to risk and capacity for loss. In order to do this, we’ll ask you some questions to understand your experience, knowledge, objectives and risk appetite. We then use this information to create an investor profile and align you to a model portfolio that’s tailored by our experts.
Who is WealthKernel?
Clim8 Invest is an appointed representative of WealthKernel Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) (FRN 723719). Customer money is protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) for up to £85,000 of the amount invested via Clim8. This doesn’t cover losses incurred through investment performance, or if you get back less than you originally invested.
WealthKernel is also the custodian of the portfolios, where the investments in your portfolio will be held. The role of a custodian is to hold customer assets for safekeeping in order to minimise the risk of their misappropriation, misuse, theft, or loss.
How do I know I can trust Clim8 with my money and is my money protected?
When you make a payment to your Clim8 Invest account, that money is immediately transferred to WealthKernel. Their role as the custodian is to hold customer assets for safekeeping in order to minimise the risk of their misappropriation, misuse, theft, or loss. WealthKernel is authorised and regulated by the FCA and is also a member of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) which means your money is protected in the event of WealthKernel’s insolvency for up to £85,000 of the amount invested via Clim8. This doesn’t cover losses incurred through investment performance or if you get back less than you originally invested, although in such cases, you may have recourse to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).
ISA
What is an ISA?
An ISA is an Individual Savings Account which is a tax efficient wrapper that allows you not to pay tax on any growth or income you’ve made in investing or saving while your savings or investments remain within the ISA wrapper. The government allows every tax resident in the UK a set amount of tax-free allowance within each tax year - this tax year (2022/23) it’s £20,000. If you don’t use all your tax-free allowance for that year, it doesn’t roll over to the next year.
You can read more about ISAs in our dedicated product page.
I already have an ISA, can I open another with you?
Provided you have not opened and or funded a stocks or shares ISA in the current tax year, then you can open a Stocks and Shares ISA with Clim8.
If you have a cash ISA with another provider, you can open a Stocks & Shares ISA with Clim8, and you can split your tax-free allowance of £20,000 between the two.
How do I transfer my current Stocks and Shares ISA to Clim8?
You will need to open a Stocks and Shares ISA with us first. Then you can contact our support team on support@clim8.com, state your current ISA provider name and request transfer-in forms. We will take care of the rest.
How do I complete the ISA transfer form?
We have designed our forms to be simple and easy to complete. You must make sure all your details are correct and up to date when completing the forms. To complete the transfer successfully, your details also must match the ones your provider has on file, so please check first if your current provider has your most up to date address and name before completing our form.
How long does an ISA transfer take?
Transfers normally take up to 4 weeks. However, this depends on your current provider. We always aim to process transfers as quickly as possible but if your transfer is taking longer than expected, it is a good idea to follow up with your current provider as they may be able to help progress the transfer across.
How do I cancel my Stocks and Shares ISA transfer request?
Contact our support team on support@clim8.com and we’ll handle this for you.
What types of ISA transfers does Clim8 accept?
We accept the following types of ISA transfers, below:
- Cash ISA
- Stocks and Shares ISA
- Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA)
Please note Clim8 only offers Stocks and Shares ISAs, therefore non Stocks and Shares ISAs transferred to Clim8 invest will convert into a Stocks and Shares ISA. If you are thinking about transferring an ISA to Clim8, please check with your current provider about exit fees and timelines, as losses might occur during the transfer process e.g. from being “out of the market”. Please note, the risks associated with Stocks and Shares ISA are different from IFISAs and Cash ISAs. If unsure whether an ISA transfer is suitable for you,speak with an independent financial adviser.
Why is my transfer taking longer than expected?
While we always work hard on making sure your transfer goes through as quickly as possible, every now and then unforeseen delays can happen. These are the most common reasons for why your transfer might be taking longer than expected:
- Your current provider might accept transfers in different ways, some accept electronic transfers while others require to receive your forms by post. If that is the case we forward your forms via recorded delivery (the securest method) but occasionally things can get lost in the mail.
- If your current providers send funds via cheque and they don’t opt to send it via recorded delivery (securest method), this can take 3-5 business days to clear.
- Your current provider may also be experiencing a backlog of high inbound or transfer-out requests, which can delay the processing of your transfer
- Your details may not be updated with your provider and they have to get in touch with you first or ask us to get in touch with you to update your information
Does transferring my ISA count towards my annual allowance?
No, ISA transfers do not count towards your annual allowance. Further contributions into your Clim8 ISA will count towards your tax-free annual ISA allowance.
How much does it cost to transfer an ISA?
The process of transferring an ISA itself is free of charge and we do not charge for supporting your transfer process. Please check with your current provider in case they have exit fees, as we would not know this information.Once transferred, your ISA will become a Clim8 ISA with our transparent fee structure.
Do I need to open an account before I transfer my ISA to Clim8?
Yes, you will need to open a Stocks and Shares ISA portfolio account first, before transferring an ISA to us.
How many ISAs can I transfer?
You can transfer as many ISAs as you want over to us. You will need to complete a new ISA transfer form each time by simply by contacting us on support@clim8.com
What is a full and partial transfer?
A full transfer is the whole of your current portfolio value transferred over to a new ISA provider. Partial transfer is where you want to only transfer a certain amount of your current portfolio value. Our transfer forms are clear, easy and simple; if partial, simply state the amount you would like to transfer over in the forms by contacting us on support@clim8.com
Can I make a deposit into my Clim8 portfolio whilst transferring an ISA?
Yes, you can still make deposits (subject to annual allowance) into your Clim8 portfolio whilst your ISA transfer is in progress.
How do I transfer-out my ISA?
If you want to transfer your Clim8 ISA to another provider, your new provider will need to email transfers@clim8.com. Please note, we do only accept electronic requests and not paper forms.
How do I ask my IFA to get in touch with you about my portfolio?
Your IFA will need to contact operations@clim8.com.
Multiple Portfolios
How many accounts can I have?
You can have up to 3 General Investment Accounts (GIA) and 1 Individual Savings Account (ISA). You can open one GIA for each available risk type. You will be able to see which accounts are available on your Dashboard.
Can I have more than one ISA?
You can only have one ISA account right now, with a single risk type. However, we’re currently working on allowing you to spread your annual ISA allowance across more than account and risk type.
When we do launch multiple ISAs, the annual allowance (currently £20,000) will be shared across all your ISA accounts. So you won’t be able to deposit more than the allowance with Clim8 in a single tax year.
Can I change the risk type on an existing account?
You can open an account with a new risk type in the Clim8 app. If you want to move funds from one risk type to another, you’ll need to get in touch with us.
What about changing my account type?
You can open the new account in your Clim8 app, but you’ll need to get in touch with us if you want to move funds from one account to the other.
Can I open a shared account or open an account for someone else in my Clim8 app?
This is not something we offer right now but we’re currently exploring the option of offering Junior ISAs in the future.
How can I close an account?
Once you’ve withdrawn all your funds, you can ask our customer support team to close the account for you.
GIA
What is GIA?
A GIA is a General Investment Account. An account that gives you the freedom to invest as much as you want, unrestrained by tax-related restrictions associated with ISA accounts. Investments in GIA are, however, generally subject to tax.
How can I transfer a GIA from another provider?
You can contact support@clim8.com requesting to transfer your GIA, please note we currently only accept GIA transfers in cash. Alternatively, you can withdraw your funds from your GIA portfolio with your current provider and then deposit the funds once received to your new provider. If you transfer a GIA, however, there may be a period of time when the money will be out of the market.
Onboarding
What is right for me, an ISA or a GIA?
Clim8 does not offer financial advice as part of our services. However, we outline the main features of ISAs and GIAs on our website which may help you to decide if an ISA or GIA is right for you. If unsure, please speak with an independent financial adviser.
Why do we ask suitability questions when you sign up?
We ask questions about your investment knowledge and experience, your financial situation, your ability to bear loss, and your investment objectives and risk tolerance in order to make an assessment of whether our services are suitable for you (the “suitability assessment”). It is a regulatory requirement to enable us to act in your best interest.
Why do you need my National Insurance number?
We need your National Insurance Number as this is one of the ways in which we can easily identify you. We also require it, particularly with regards to the ISA, for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) tax reporting purposes.
Why do you ask for citizenship?
It helps us verify your identity and make sure we can offer our services to you (which are currently limited to the UK and Channel Islands). You do need to have British citizenship to be eligible, but you must be a UK resident.
What is an “Easy bank transfer?”
An Easy bank transfer uses Open Banking to allow you to deposit money into your Clim8 account without having to enter any payment details or account numbers into your online or mobile banking platform. With Open Banking, you authorise payments to a specific third party (like Clim8) by logging into your banking application and confirming you’re happy for that third party to initiate the payment. We currently offer Easy bank transfers to all the major UK banks. However if you don’t see the provider of your nominated bank account listed when making a payment, you’ll need to make a regular bank transfer instead.
Who are Truelayer and why did their name appear when I went to make a payment?
TrueLayer is one of the leading Open Banking technology providers in the UK. We use TrueLayer to connect to your bank account to initiate a payment securely. When authorising the payment you will need to give permission for “Pay with TrueLayer” to make a financial transaction on your behalf. You will be asked to do this each time you make a payment using Easy bank transfer so you stay in control.
TrueLayer is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as an E-money institution and a Payment Institution.
Risk Type and Portfolios
What is a portfolio risk type?
Risk appetite and risk tolerance can vary significantly between individual investors. We offer three portfolios each carrying a different level of risk (Cautious, Balanced and Adventurous). Equities typically carry more risks than, for example, fixed income or cash over a long-term horizon, but equally they also tend to offer the potential for higher expected returns. Consequently, individuals with a greater risk appetite, and ability to bear potential loss, would generally seek to invest in portfolios with a higher risk profile (generally with greater exposure to equities). Conversely, individuals with a lower risk tolerance would generally seek to invest in portfolios with a lower risk profile (generally with greater exposure to fixed income).
How do I change my portfolio risk type?
You can’t do it in the app yet, but we’re working on it. In the meantime, contact support@clim8.com, stating which risk type you would like to select and confirm whether or not your circumstances have changed in relation to your previous answers in the suitability questions. We may follow up with additional questions in order to make sure that the portfolio selected is suitable for you.
What does “Capital at risk” mean?
Investing in the market comes with exposure to risk, and the risk you can be comfortable with depends on your financial situation, your goals and your individual circumstances. The most important thing to understand as an investor is that the value of your investments can go down as well as up, so you may not get back the amount you originally invested. Thinking of investing as a medium to long-term activity can help you decide how much you want to invest and at what risk level.
What are Clim8’s “sustainable themes”?
Global greenhouse gases emissions come from a handful of sectors which, if decarbonised, can put us on the right track to limit global warming to well below 2°C from pre-industrial levels. That’s why we have tied five of our six investment themes to industries and services that play a critical role in accelerating the transition towards a low-carbon economy such as Clean Energy, Clean Technology, Clean Mobility, Sustainable Food and Circular Economy. Our last theme is Clean Water which is critical to driving economic growth and better healthcare, notably in developing countries.
What is a factsheet?
A factsheet is a document that contains certain key information on our portfolios. It contains information such as investment performance, portfolio holdings, and fee details. It is designed to help you assess the portfolio and understand where your money is invested. We update our factsheets every month, and you can view and download them in the app.
How do you screen companies when selecting them in a portfolio?
Our investment team rigorously researches and screens stocks and funds for inclusion in our portfolios. They consider both the potential performance of the asset as well as the potential impact of the asset on the climate. You can read more about their investment methodology on our How we invest page.
Can I open multiple portfolios?
Yes, you can vary your risk levels and personalise your Clim8 investment to suit your circumstances. You can open one Stocks & Shares ISA with one risk level (Cautious, Balanced or Adventurous) and up three General Investment Accounts, one for each risk level.
Payments and Investments
What is the minimum investment amount?
When you set up a direct debit with us, you can deposit from as little as £10 and up to £2000 per payment. For a one-off deposit, you can start with £25 and there is no upper limit.
How to contribute to your Clim8 Invest account
For one-off payments completed via an "Easy bank transfer" or manual bank transfer method, it usually takes a few hours to appear in your Clim8 account. If you’ve set up a direct debit, it can take up to 5 working days after the payment has been collected for it to show up in the app.
When will the contribution appear in my Clim8 Invest account?
For one-off payments done via Easy or manual bank transfer method, it usually takes around 1 day to reach your Clim8 account. If you’ve set up a direct debit, it can take up to 5 working days for your payment to show up in the app.
Why has my portfolio value not gone up or down?
Until we invest your contribution into your selected portfolio, you will not see any value changes. Trades are placed twice a week (trading days may alternate), and any payments received after 5 PM on a trading day will be processed and traded on the next available trading day.
Why has my contribution been rejected and returned to my bank account?
It is likely one of the two things happened:
1. The money you sent may have come from a bank account not registered with your Clim8 account, a so-called ‘non-nominated’ bank account. Therefore the payment couldn’t be matched and had to be returned. 2. The unique payment reference (displayed when you opt for “manual” payment within the Clim8 app to help us identify which portfolio and account the payment is for) was either not included or was incorrect. Therefore the payment couldn’t be matched and had to be returned.
Why is my payment not showing in my account?
Contributions and payments will generally show within your Clim8 account the next working day. If you see that the funds have been deducted from your bank account but not showing If they have not, then the payment most likely wasn’t successful. If that happens, please contact support@clim8.com, and we can help.
I selected the easy bank transfer payment method but cannot see my nominated bank provider?
We use a third party called TrueLayer when you select the easy bank transfer payment method. They work with many bank providers, which you will be able to see in the list. If you cannot find your nominated bank provider, this means TrueLayer and your bank provider may not be integrated. Therefore, simply opt for the regular bank transfer payment method in order to make a payment.
How can I set up a direct debit?
You can easily set up your direct debit in the app, using the “recurring payments” feature. Access it through your individual account view and simply choose your preferred payment frequency – monthly or weekly.
Can I end up in debt by investing with Clim8?
No, you cannot lose more money than you put into an ISA or GIA account with Clim8 Invest. You can however, in a worst case scenario, lose any amount invested.
Withdrawals
What type of withdrawals does Clim8 Invest offer?
You can do a full or partial withdrawal. For partial withdrawals, a minimum of £25 can be withdrawn and you must leave a minimum of £5 in your portfolio.
How to make a withdrawal?
Simply contact support@clim8.com and our team will take care of it.
What is the minimum withdrawal amount?
£25 is the minimum withdrawal amount you can withdraw from any of your portfolios.
How long does a withdrawal take?
As your money is invested in a range of assets in our portfolios, withdrawals may take up to 10 working days (time scales are on a best endeavours basis). During this process, the value of your investments may fluctuate while the trade is executed. This means that the final amount of cash you receive at the end of the process can be different from the moment you request the withdrawal, and can be higher or lower than that amount. To give you the full picture, all withdrawals go through the following steps:
1. We will sell your investments at our next twice-weekly investment cycle, typically on a Tuesday or Friday.
2. Once sold, the trades are on a best endeavours basis to settle before our custodian receives the cash to send back to you.
3. Once the trades settle, meaning they are finalised, our custodian sends the money to your nominated bank account by electronic transfer, which will arrive the following business day.
Security
Is my money protected with Clim8?
Clim8 Invest is an appointed representative of WealthKernel Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) (FRN 723719). Customer money may be protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) for up to £85,000. This doesn’t cover losses incurred through investment performance or if you get back less than you originally invested.
Fees
What’s the platform fee?
We charge an annual management fee of 0.6%. Charges are made monthly in arrears.
What’s the average portfolio cost?
Depending on the profiles and model portfolios, our average portfolio cost is typically between 0.35% and 0.5% per year. These are taken directly by the asset and fund providers and cover the costs incurred in trading assets in the portfolio and for providing the investment platform.
What’s your market spread?
Orders to buy and sell securities on your behalf are transmitted to the respective counterparties that the investment manager trades with. All investment order activity is subject to a market spread (the difference between the price to buy and the price to sell). We work hard to minimise the cost which we expect to be around 0.06% per annum. We are also subject to the best execution obligation to you, which means that when we transmit orders for execution, we need to have taken all sufficient steps to get you the best possible result with respect to the overall total cost of trading.
What’s your withdrawal fee?
We don’t charge a fee to withdraw money from your account. Any trading and platform costs incurred to the point of withdrawal will be deducted as they are charged in arrears.
What’s your transfer-out fee?
We don’t charge a transfer-out fee if you decide to transfer to another provider. Only monthly costs incurred from trading to the point of transfer will be taken.
Terms of Service
Am I locked in after opening an account?
No, you can withdraw whenever you want without paying any additional fees (aside from monthly fees to the point of withdrawal). You should, however, bear in mind that the minimum recommended investment term for stocks and shares investments is generally three years due to the nature of the investments.

What is an ISA?

An ISA is an Individual Savings Account which is a tax efficient wrapper that allows you not to pay tax on any growth or income you’ve made in investing or saving while your savings or investments remain within the ISA wrapper. The government allows every tax resident in the UK a set amount of tax-free allowance within each tax year – this tax year (2022/23) it’s £20,000. If you don’t use all your tax-free allowance for that year, it doesn’t roll over to the next year.

You can read more about ISAs in our dedicated product page.

Provided you have not opened and or funded a stocks or shares ISA in the current tax year, then you can open a Stocks and Shares ISA with Clim8.

What types of ISA transfers does Clim8 accept?

We accept the following types of ISA transfers, below:

Cash ISA

Why is my transfer taking longer than expected?

While we always work hard on making sure your transfer goes through as quickly as possible, every now and then unforeseen delays can happen. These are the most common reasons for why your transfer might be taking longer than expected:

How much does it cost to transfer an ISA?

The process of transferring an ISA itself is free of charge and we do not charge for supporting your transfer process. Please check with your current provider in case they have exit fees, as we would not know this information.Once transferred, your ISA will become a Clim8 ISA with our transparent fee structure.
