        Cat standard

Cat standards signify that a financial product meets certain standards on Charges, Access and Terms. The standards vary according to the product:Stocks and share ISAsNo initial or exit charge; minimum investment not more than £500 lump sum, or £50 per month; at least 50% invested in EU-quoted stocksCash ISAsNo charges; minimum transaction no greater than £10; withdrawals no later than seven days; no penalties; interest rate no lower than 2 per cent below basic bank rates; rises on the back of basic rate increases must occur within one monthInsurance ISAsMaximum charges of 3 per cent per year; premium no higher than £250 lump sum of £25 monthly; surrender values of at least asset value; after three years, surrender values must be no lower than total premiumsThe fact that a financial product offered by an institution has a CAT mark is not a guarantee of its performance or a recommendation by the government. It simply indicates that it satisfied the objective criteria.Equally the absence of a CAT mark does not mean it should be avoided. Some of the best-performing ISAs do not have CAT marks
