Structured Notes

A Structured Note is an investment tool which pays a return linked to the value or level of a specified asset or index. It enables you to benefit some or all of the rise in the value or level, while sometimes offering capital protection* if the value ever falls.

• Structured Notes can be linked to:
  • Equities
  • Interest rates
  • Funds
  • Commodities (e.g. oil)
  • Foreign currency
• Most (but not all) structured products undertake to repay some or all of the capital invested at the maturity date, although this may depend on certain conditions being met e.g. an Index not having fallen by more than 50% during the term. If it has, then you might get less back.
• Return linked to the value of an asset or level of an Index
• Fixed term – both capital and return are usually payable at the end of the term on maturity
• Structured notes can often be sold on the secondary market before maturity, but the market value received may be less than the amount invested

Please note that this is not the same as investing in an asset or in the investments included within an Index directly. The investment assets might yield an income e.g. dividends but these are not usually reflected directly in the level of an Index or value of a linked asset.
