A potential 15.9% return, 100% capital protected…
“The FTSE4Good UK 50 Index tracks the share performance of the UK’s 50 largest companies which demonstrate strong Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practises. Many of these companies also feature in the FTSE 100 Index, but the FTSE4Good UK 50 Index differs in that it tracks 50 companies as opposed to 100, and only tracks companies that have a high ESG rating*.
The Investec FTSE4Good 6 Year Deposit Plan is plan offers a fixed return of 15.9%, provided the FTSE4Good UK 50 Index is higher at the end of the six year term, than its value at the start of the plan. As with any other UK bank deposit, your capital is fully protected, and is also eligible for the UK’s Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
With the best long term savings rates offering little more than around 1.4% AER, for those looking for the opportunity for higher returns, have an ethical approach to how they use their cash, and yet who do not want to put their capital at risk, this plan could be appealing.”
