Further Information
The Arcus 6Y Fixed Growth Recallable Deposit Plan (SG17) is a 6 year investment offering a potential return of 4.55% p.a. for each year that’s passed since the Start Date. The Deposit Taker has the discretion to end the Plan early on any of the annual Recall Dates from year two onwards.
This Plan offers investors two possible routes to earn interest:
- If the Recall Feature is triggered, investors will receive a fixed lump-sum interest equal to 4.55% for each year that’s passed since the Start Date and the Plan will end early.
- If the Recall Feature is not triggered, investors will receive a fixed lump-sum interest of 27.30% (equal to 4.55% for each year) at the end of the 6-year term.
What Are The Risks Of The Plan?
As with all forms of investment there are risks involved.
You must be prepared to leave your deposit invested for the full fixed term otherwise you may get back less than you put in
A standard cash deposit account will repay your deposit in full, regardless of when you withdraw. Structured deposits are different because their value during the fixed term depends on many factors including interest rates, the creditworthiness of the deposit-taker and any ups and downs in the value of the underlying asset or index to which the return is linked. You will get your money back plus the potential returns if you hold your deposit until maturity, but the amount you would get back if you needed to withdraw early may vary significantly and some structured deposit providers may also charge an exit fee for early withdrawal.
There is a risk that you will receive no return on your deposit
For example, if you are promised a return linked to how the stock market performs, and it falls during the fixed term, then your return could be zero (assuming there is no minimum return) so you will just get back your deposit. You must be comfortable that this is a risk you are willing to take, and that receiving no return at all would not cause you financial difficulties. You should also understand how returns are calculated over the period of the product and whether this is based on specific points in time or averaged over the whole term of the deposit.
Inflation could erode the value of your deposit
Inflation is the rise in the price of goods and services over time. It means that your money will be able to buy less in the future than it does today. If you were to put money in a structured deposit and there was high inflation over the fixed term, your deposit at the end of the term would be worth less than it was at the start of the term. Of course, this risk also applies to any savings or investment product that is not inflation-linked.
There are limits on how much you can claim under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme
Structured deposit plans are deposit-based and will usually be fully protected from stock market risk at the end date and benefit from the protection of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, if the counterparty is a licensed UK deposit taker. The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is the UK’s deposit guarantee scheme. This provides for compensation of up to £85,000 per UK-eligible individual claimant per institution in the event of failure of the counterparty bank or institution for the aggregated amount of all eligible deposits held with them. Please refer to the individual plan brochure for details.
