Long Term Investment Options

Long term investments are specifically designed for investors who are happy to leave their capital untouched for a number of years (typically 5 years or more) to maximise their capital earnings, or potentially enjoy the income generated by such investment. See below for a range of investment options:

Important Information: Structured investment plans are not capital protected and are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) for default alone. Income and growth returns are not guaranteed. There is a risk of losing some or all of your initial investment due to the performance of the underlying Index or commodity. There is also a risk that the company backing the plan known as the Counterparty may be unable to repay your initial investment and any returns stated.

Long term investments generally mean an investment term of at least five years and the ideal scenario is the investment, other than potentially the income produced, will not be touched before it has reached maturity. Find out more below:

For some fixed term investments you could be charged if you withdraw capital before the account has reached maturity
When investing in the stock market it is important to be patient as funds can go down as well as up
Many alternative investments are seen as a long-term investment such as investing in collectibles and property
