General risk warnings
The list of funds/investments provided should not be seen in any way as being a recommendation. No advice has been given and you should be aware that any investment which takes place will be transacted on a “non-advised sale” basis.
Full details of the investments will be provided in the documentation/brochure sent to you and it is up to you to ensure that you fully understand the nature of the investment before proceeding. If you are at all unsure of the suitability of the type of investment, both in respect of its objectives and its risk profile, you should seek independent financial advice.
Structured Products
Structured Products are fixed term investments and are designed so that your capital remains invested for the full term of the plan. Although it may be possible to encash your investment before the end of the term, this could mean that an early encashment charge is applied and you may not get back the full amount of your capital.
An investment termed as a “capital guaranteed structured product” is one where the return of your capital at maturity is not dependent upon the performance of an index or another financial instrument
An investment termed as a “capital at risk structured product” is one where the return of your capital at maturity is dependent upon the performance of an index or another financial instrument.
Specific ISA warnings
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.
Dividend income from a stocks and shares ISA will, under current legislation, be free of further liability to UK income tax whether this is paid out or automatically reinvested.
Savings bonds offer not advice and all products are promoted on a non advised basis.
