Key Facts

Investment Term: 6 years and 14 days, with the potential for early maturity. Early maturity will be triggered if the levels of both Indices are at or above their Opening Levels on an anniversary date of the Plan.
Availability: As direct investments, ISAs and ISA Transfers, and for pension funds, trustees and companies.
Indices FTSE 100™ & DJ Eurostoxx 50™
Investment Return 11% per annum (simple) for each year the Plan is in force, so the returns at each possible early maturity date would be 11% (end of year 1), 22% (end of year 2), 33% (end of year 3); 44% (end of year 4); 55% (end of year 5) or, if the plan runs the full 6 year term, and the Index Levels are at or above their Opening Levels, 66%.

If the Index Levels are below their Opening Levels no investment return will be payable.
Capital Return Capital will be returned in full at maturity as long as the Indices have never fallen by more than 50% of their respective Opening Levels at close of business on any day during the investment term. If one, or both, Indices have fallen by more than 50% and the Final Level of one, or both, Indices is less than its Opening Level capital will be reduced. The reduction will be 1% for each 1% the Final Level of the lower performing Index is below its Opening Level. If one, or both Indices have fallen by more than 50% you will receive a full return of capital as long as the Final Levels are at least equal to their Opening Levels. Please see the brochure for a full explanation of the calculation, plus examples.
