The value of investments and any return from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the full amount invested. Please ensure that you read the Important Risk Information below. 

There are a number of structured investment products with a variety of investment risk, meaning there should be something to suit all attitudes to risk. However, they are not right for everybody, and you should assess the pros and cons before making any decisions.

Pros of structured investment products:

  • Stock market linked for potentially high returns
  • Some or all capital protection
  • Fixed terms which allow for planning

Cons of structured investment products:

  • They do not allow for regular investment
  • They cannot offer guaranteed returns
  • They do not allow instant access

If you want to know more about structured investment products and the range of options available to you, see the table above.

The safety of your original capital depends on the ability of the counterparty (the institution providing the underlying assets, rather than the product provider) to repay your investment at the end of the term. You can assess the strength of a counterparty, and therefore the relative risk to your investment, by comparing their credit rating score, from AAA to D, using a credit rating agency such as Standard & Poor's (www.standardandpoors.com) or Fitch (www.fitchratings.com).

 Important Risk Information:

This website contains information only and does not constitute advice or a personal recommendation in any way whatsoever. The value of investments and income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the full amount invested. The tax efficiency of ISAs is based on current tax law and there is no guarantee that tax rules will stay the same in the future.

Different types of investment carry different levels of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Please ensure that you read the Important Risk Information for further details. Prior to making any decision to invest, you should ensure that you are familiar with the risks associated with a particular investment and should read the product literature. If you are in any doubt as to the suitability of a particular investment, both in respect of its objectives and its risk profile, you should seek independent financial advice.
