The Causeway Securities FTSE CSDI Step Down Kick Out Plan is a maximum 10 year plan that offers potential growth of 8.75% for each year the plan runs, subject to the performance of the FTSE Custom 100 Synthetic 3.5% Fixed Dividend Index.
The Plan will Kick-Out if the respective Closing Level of the Underlying Asset, on any Observation Date from end of Year 2, is at or above the Kick Out Level. In this event an investor will receive their Initial Capital back, plus a Potential Investment Return of 8.75% for each year that the Plan has been in existence. The first Observation Date on which an early maturity could be triggered will be two years after the Start Date.
If on the Final Observation Date the Closing Level of the Underlying Asset is less than 65% of its Opening Level (representing a decline of more than 35% from the Opening Level), your Initial Capital will be lost at a rate of 1% for every 1% that the Final Level of the Underlying Asset is below its Opening Level.
If the Counterparty were to fail or become insolvent, you could lose some or all of your investment and any return that may be due, irrespective of the performance of the Underlying Asset.
Subject to a minimum investment of £10,000, the Plan is available to: Direct Investment; ISA/ISA Transfers; Pensions; Companies; Trusts; Charities.
It is Causeway Securities understanding of current legislation and known HMRC practice that any investment return from a direct investment by individuals or Trusts into this Plan is expected to be subject to Capital Gains Tax. Investors should obtain their own tax advice.

The product is designed to provide a return in the form of a cash payment on the maturity date in an amount that depends on whether the underlying satisfies the barrier conditions specified below. The product has a fixed term and will terminate on the maturity date, unless terminated early.
Early termination following an autocall: The product will terminate prior to the maturity date if, on any autocall observation date, the reference level is at or above the relevant autocall barrier level. On any such early termination, you will on the immediately following autocall payment date receive a cash payment equal to the applicable autocall payment. The relevant dates, autocall barrier levels and autocall payments are shown in the table(s) on the key information document.
Termination on the maturity date: If the product has not terminated early, on the maturity date you will receive:
1. if the final reference level is at or above 85.00% of the initial reference level, a cash payment equal to GBP 1.875;
2. otherwise, if the final reference level is at or above 65.00% of the initial reference level and below 85.00% of the initial reference level, a cash payment equal to GBP 1.00;
3. otherwise, if the final reference level is below 65.00% of the initial reference level, a cash payment equal to (i) the product notional amount multiplied by (ii) (A) the final reference level divided by (B) the initial reference level.
Investors should note that the payments described above are based on the expected value of the preference shares. Therefore any return you may receive on the product depends directly on the value of the preference shares. As such, your return is only indirectly dependent on the underlying.
Under the product terms, certain dates specified in the key information document will be adjusted if the respective date is either not a business day or not a trading day (as applicable).Any adjustments may affect the return, if any, you receive.
The product terms also provide that if certain exceptional events occur (1) adjustments may be made to the product and/or (2) the product issuer may terminate the product, as applicable, early. These events are specified in the product terms and principally relate to the product and the product issuer. The preference shares in turn contain provisions allowing the preference shares to be adjusted or terminated early in the case of certain exceptional events, in particular relating to the underlying. Any such adjustments or early termination are likely to affect the amount and timing of return you receive under the product, meaning the return (if any) that you receive on such early termination is likely to be different from the scenarios described above and may be less than the amount you invested.
The product is intended to be offered to retail investors who fulfil all of the criteria below:
1. they have the ability to make an informed investment decision through sufficient knowledge and understanding of the product and its specific risks and rewards, either independently or through professional advice, and they may have experience of investing in and/or holding a number of similar products providing a similar market exposure;
2. they seek income and/or capital growth, expect the movement in the underlying to perform in a way that generates a favourable return, have an investment horizon of the recommended holding period specified in the key information document and understand that the product may terminate early;
3. they accept the risk that the issuer or guarantor could fail to pay or perform its obligations under the product and they are able to bear a total loss of their investment; and
4. they are willing to accept a level of risk to achieve potential returns that is consistent with the summary risk indicator shown in the key information document.
