Risks

All investment involves risk and you could lose some or all of the money you invest.

It is imperative that you read the plan brochure and terms and conditions and understand all of the risks involved, which are outlined on page 5 and 13 of the brochure, prior to proceeding. If you do not fully understand the risks, the commitment or you are unsure as to the suitability of the investment for you, you should not proceed but instead contact us for advice.

Description

This six-year one-week structured deposit will generate gross monthly income payments of 0.51%, irrespective of the performance of the FTSE 100 and the S&P 500 Index. If at the end of the term one or both indices are below their respective Initial Levels, then investors' original capital will be returned in full. If the Final Index Level of one or both of the two Indices is more than 35% below its respective Initial Index Level, investors will suffer a reduction to their invested capital equal to the percentage the Final Index Level of the worst performing Index is below its respective Initial Index Level. For example, if the Final Index Levels are 10% up for one Index and 45% down for the other, investors will suffer a reduction to their capital of 45%.

Initial Index Level:

The closing level of the Index on 16 April 2025.

Final Index Level:

The closing level of the Index on 16 April 2031.

Capital At Risk Barrier (Subject To Counterparty Solvency)

Barrier Level: 35%

Downside: 1:1

Capital at Risk Barrier Type: End of Term only

If the investment fails to produce a gain, and the Final Index Levels of both indices are no more than 35% below their respective Initial Index Levels, investors' capital should be returned in full. However, if the Final Index Level of one or both indices is more than 35% below its respective Initial Index Level, investors will suffer a reduction to their invested capital of 1% for every 1% the Final Index Level of the worst performing index is below its respective Initial Index Level.

Charges

Unless stated otherwise charges do not affect the amount being invested as they have been taken into account in the terms of the investment. So, for every £100 invested, the return, provided the investment is held until maturity, should be £100, plus or minus the gain or loss in accordance with the defined terms. Separate fees may be payable to your adviser, platform or stockbroker for arranging this investment.

The initial charge incorporated in the terms of the investment: Approximately 3.64%.

If surrendered early, the value will be dependent on a number of factors and may be less than the original amount invested. In the event of early surrender the provider may levy an administration fee which will be deducted from the surrender proceeds as follows:

Early Surrender: £100+VAT

Early ISA Transfer: £100+VAT
