The structured products sector needs to start launching timely plans that directly reflect uncertainty in the UK economy, according to Investec Structured Products, which is launching its new and innovative FTSE 100 5 Year Deposit Plus Plan 1 this week.
The Plan offers impressive returns whether the index rises moderately or potentially substantial returns if the UK economy markedly improves by 2019. Namely, investors in the Deposit Plan – which is capital protected – receive a 30% return if the FTSE 100 is higher after five years or 100% of any growth in the FTSE 100 if it rises more than 30% that timeframe.
Commenting on the FTSE 100 5 Year Deposit Plus Plan, Gary Dale, Head of Intermediary Sales, Investec Structured Products said:
“We launched this Deposit Plan with the aim of giving an alternative way to access upside from the FTSE 100 if it grows either moderately or substantially over the next five years. The UK economy may be on the path to recovery, but it is entirely uncertain to what extent. Therefore, we decided in our latest collection of Plans to give investors the best of both worlds, whether equity market growth will be dramatic or slightly more tempered.”
The latest collection includes:
Double ISA Opportunity
The timing of your client’s investment allows them to use their ISA allowance for the two consecutive tax years, 2013/14 and 2014/15, if they have not already used all of their ISA allowance for the tax year.
Change to our Deposit Growth Plan
This launch we’ve removed the FTSE 100 option from our Deposit Growth Plan and renamed the plan, EVEN 30™ Deposit Growth Plan. We have introduced a new Deposit Plan; the FTSE 100 5 Year Deposit Plus Plan 1.
Applications for our latest collection of Plans (including 2014/15 ISA Investments) must be submitted by 5pm on 11 April 2014 (28 March 2014 for ISA transfers) and 4 April 2014 for 2013/14 ISA investments. Funds transferred from another ISA provider must be received by 17 April 2014.
