I reckon it’s potential to generate a bumper passive revenue of £9,913 a yr by investing £20k in a Shares and Shares ISA.
That appears a tall order and I gained’t get wherever that a lot in yr one. No inventory on earth yields 49.56% a yr, and if it did, I wouldn’t contact it.
At this time, the FTSE 100 index has a median yield of round 3.5%, which might give me revenue of round £700 yearly in yr one. That’s a great distance from £9,913. So how do I am going from right here to there?
I’d begin by investing in Aviva
I’d begin by focusing on shares on the larger finish of the yield spectrum. Insure Aviva (LSE: AV) has a trailing yield of 6.83% a yr. If I put my full £20k ISA into that, I’d get revenue of £1,366 in yr one. That’s nonetheless nowhere close to £9,913 although. So what’s my secret weapon?
Aviva has a properly balanced enterprise masking pensions, insurance coverage, investments, fairness launch and different monetary providers merchandise. Enterprise is booming. Aviva lately posted a 58% improve in first-half statutory income to £654m. Working income climbed 14% to £875m. It additionally hiked its interim dividend 7% to 11.9p.
It’s not with out dangers. Like each firm, Aviva could have good years and unhealthy years. If it underperforms at any level, dissatisfied traders could drift away, hitting the share value.
Dividends aren’t assured both. Corporations should generate sufficient income to fund them, yr after yr. Like many, Aviva dropped its dividend throughout the pandemic, however it’s been climbing steadily since, as this chart exhibits.

Due to dangers like these, I’d by no means make investments my full £20k ISA in only one inventory. I’d appeared to separate it between 4 or 5 totally different corporations for diversification. However my instance exhibits simply what may be completed, by shopping for shares and holding them for the long term.

I intention to carry my inventory picks for a minimal 5 years, and ideally many years. Let’s say I held Aviva for 30 years and it maintained at this time’s 6.83% yield all through. On the finish, I’d have £104,318 purely from reinvested dividends. A 6.83% yield on that sum would give me revenue of £9,913 a yr.
After all, that is theoretical. Aviva’s unlikely to keep up such a excessive yield for thus lengthy. Alternatively, my calculations don’t embody any share value development in any respect. So I might find yourself with much more than £104,318. Within the final yr, the Aviva share value is up a powerful 20%.
What my calculations do present is the way it’s potential to get a excessive revenue from a comparatively small authentic stake. And that secret weapon I discussed? Time.
Additionally, I wouldn’t simply make investments this yr’s ISA allowance. I’d maintain investing yr after yr, spreading my threat throughout 20 shares or so in complete. That manner, I’d hope to producing much more revenue than £9,913 a yr. And all of it tax free.
