THE BLUELIGHT RANGE

Protected Index Investment

The Protected Index Investment is specifically designed for wealth protection and creation by having a minimum protected return, while offering capped upside to any increases in the FTSE/JSE Top 40 Index (“Top 40 Index”) during the term of the product. The Protected Index Investment offers flexibility in that it allows the investor the choice of capital protection required. This choice will depend on the investor’s risk appetite. The degree of capital protection required will determine the level at which the investor’s participation in the Top 40 Index is capped. A higher minimum protected return will result in a lower cap. The Protected Index Investment is specifically designed for investors who want broad exposure to the share market, but are concerned by the market’s volatility. Investors may consider the Protected Index Investment as a lower risk alternative to directly investing in shares. The Protected Index Investment would typically appeal to an investor who has a mildly bullish view of the market but does not favour a particular share or sector.
