CGT

When deliberating whether to invest with the  local currency in foreign instruments or make use of the annual offshore allowance and invest directly ,  take into account the fact that the local currency investment bears CGT  on the full gain whilst  the currency gain on the offshore investment is not taken into account.

And off course make use of the annual exclusion whatever you do.
