Investec launches new SP collection

Investec Structured Products has unveiled its latest collection of plans, which are available until 26 August 2011.

The collateralised option continues to be available on the FTSE 100 Geared Returns Plan, FTSE 100 Bonus Income Plan, FTSE 100 Enhanced Kick-Out Plan and the Gilt Backed Growth Plan.

The group said collateralisation offers advisers the potential to diversify counterparty risk more efficiently, potentially giving clients an additional element of security on their investments.

Advisers can diversify their clients’ investments across five UK financial institutions: HSBC Bank plc, Nationwide Building Society, Santander UK plc, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc and Lloyds TSB Bank plc.

On the Gilt Backed Growth Plan, meanwhile, the collateral will be provided by a portfolio of UK gilts.
