RISK FACTORS |
 |
• The Plan
aims to provide the potential for an accelerated capital growth plus
capital repayment at maturity that is dependent on the
performance of the FTSE™ 100 Index. The ability to provide this
growth is achieved by exposing your capital to risk. On maturity you
may not receive back the original capital invested.
If the Closing Level of the FTSE™ 100 Index is less than 50% of the
corresponding Start Index Level on any business day during the term
of the investment it is likely to lead to the decrease of an
Investor’s investment capital. Please see the section ‘Your capital
repayment’ in the Dynamic Growth Plan Plus Brochures for full
details.
• Any capital
growth generated by the Plan does not include any allowance for
dividends paid by the companies which comprise the FTSE™ 100 Index.
• The Plan
Manager will arrange for the purchase of Plan securities from
financial institutions rated ‘AA’ or better (as measured by Standard
& Poor’s or equivalent) at the time of purchase. In the event of
such securities being unavailable, the Plan Manager may substitute
the securities with alternatives with similar characteristics.
• There is a
risk that the financial institution may fail to meet its
obligations. In addition, the terms of the investment may permit the
financial institution to withhold, defer, reduce or even terminate
payments in certain events, as a result of which investors may
receive less than they would otherwise or may have to wait for the
proceeds.
• Your
circumstances could change, forcing you to sell your Plan
investments early. If this happens, you may get back less than the
amount you originally invested. The value of the Plan will be
determined by the price at which the Investments can actually be
sold on the relevant Dealing Date.
• You cannot
claim full reimbursement if the price at which your securities were
purchased has fallen, when we sell them, following you exercising
your right to cancel.
• If you have
invested via an ISA and subsequently decide to cancel, it may not be
possible to invest in another ISA for the relevant tax year in which
you invested.
• Tax
assumptions are based on understanding of current legislation
and practice at the time of print. The levels and basis of taxation
and reliefs from taxation can change at any time and any change
could be applied retrospectively. The value of any tax relief
depends on individual circumstances. For tax advice, potential
investors should consult their professional advisers.
• Past
performance IS NOT necessarily a guide to future performance and
should not be used to assess the risks associated with this
investment.
• The Dynamic
Growth Plan Plus is not the same as a bank or building society
account where capital is guaranteed and, with instant access
accounts, is readily available without penalty.
• The effect
of inflation will reduce the real value of what you receive at the
end of the term.
