Your application should be sent to us and not the Structured product provider, forms can be returned to admin@moneyworld.com or by post to – Moneyworld, 34 High Street, High Wycombe, Bucks, HP11 2AG.  The application should arrive with us before the advertised closing date for your chosen plan.

The payment can be made by bank transfer direct to the plan manager or by cheque, details of where to send the funds or who the cheque should be made payable to are usually included on the application form for your chosen plan.  If you’re still unsure then get in touch with us and we’ll provide details.

The company that you invest with will issue a cancellation notice once they have received and processed your application. This will give you 14 days in which to cancel the application if you decide not to proceed.

However if you cancel the plan after it has started it is possible that you will receive back less than your original investment, irrespective of whether you cancel within the 14 day period or not.

When the plan ends you will be contacted by the company that holds your investment and will usually be given the following options;

– Re-invest into a new product with the same company if they have one available at the time

– Request that they return the proceeds in full to you (any ISA funds returned will lose their ISA status)

– Re-invest part of the money into a new plan and encash the rest

– If the plan is held as an ISA you also have the option of transferring the funds to another company to retain the ISA status

There are a number of websites available that provide historical index levels, links to some of these are provided below;

If you require historical information for previous issues of the plan you are investing in then this can generally be found on the website of the company that administers the plan.

The fee can be paid direct to us or by specifying on the application form that the fee is to be deducted from your investment.  If you prefer to pay us directly you can do this by cheque or bank transfer.  If posting an application please either enclose a cheque payable to Moneyworld or indicate that the fee is to be paid directly and we will provide account details once we have processed your application.

If you’re emailing your form and haven’t indicated that the fee is to be deducted from the investment, we’ll assume you’re paying  by bank transfer and will provide account details when we acknoweldge receipt of your application.

A Structured Product is a fixed term product which usually runs for between 2-10 years. The return of your original capital and any income/growth payments are usually dependant on the performance of either a basket of shares or more commonly a specific index such as the FTSE 100.

There are two types of Structured Products available:

♦ Investment based
♦ Deposit based

Investment based: At the end of the term, you receive the product return from the company that holds the investment plus a return of capital, providing certain criteria has been met.

The product is issued in association with a third party, known as a ‘counterparty’ who provide the returns and the guarantees. If this third party goes bankrupt, you could lose some or all of your money. This type of product does not benefit from Financial Services Compensation Scheme protection

Deposit based: Deposit based plans are similar to Structured Investment Products, however UK investors may benefit from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme’s (FSCS) deposit insurance scheme, subject to certain limits.
