Fund Summary

• Designed to invest in bonds issued by the UK Government.

Benefits

• An investment linked to an index of bonds issued by the UK Government.
• Give your money the growth potential and security of long-term bonds issued by the UK Government.

Things to think about

• Your cash-in value can rise and fall on a daily basis and you could get back less than you have paid in.
• Your funds performance will mainly depend on the credit worthiness of the UK Government and the movement in long-term interest rates, which can raise and lower the value of bonds held in the fund.

Fund Summary

• A mixed managed fund from Scottish Friendly where premiums are pooled with those of other clients and returns are linked to the performance of the underlying assets within the fund.

Benefits

• An investment linked to a cautiously managed portfolio of stock market, property, cash and bond assets.
• Provided you haven't made any withdrawals or switched out of the fund, if you cash in only on the 10th anniversary, or each subsequent 5th year anniversary thereafter, of your continuous investment in the Unitised With-Profits fund you will receive a guaranteed cash sum of at least as much as you have invested.

Things to think about

• When you cash in, switch out or take a withdrawal from the Unitised With-Profits fund you will receive a value which is in line with the performance of the assets within the fund. This is done by adding a final bonus or deducting a market value reduction.
• No market value reduction can apply on the 10-year anniversary, or each subsequent 5th year anniversary thereafter, of your continuous investment in the Unitised With-Profits fund, which provides your guaranteed value.
• Continuous investment means you have maintained at least one full unit in the Unitised With-Profits fund and is measured from the first day you invest.
