Risk Warnings

Past Performance

Past performance is used as a guide only; it is no guarantee of future performance

Investment

The value of your investment and any income from it may go down as well as up. You may not get back the original amount you invested

Estate Planning /Tax

Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances. Both your circumstances and tax rules may be subject to change in the future. Not all areas of Estate Planning or tax planning are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Protection

If premium payments are not maintained, the benefits of the plan will be put at risk. If premium payments cease altogether, the benefits of the plan will cease. The cover may be less than you need if you do not review it regularly.

VCT

VCT investments are high risk and not appropriate for everyone.  It’s important you understand the risk of investing in a VCT.  Note that the value of your investment may go down as well and up and you may not get back the full amount you invested.  Also, tax rules and regulations depend on personal circumstances and are subject to change.
