Investment costs
There are two investment costs you need to be aware of. The first is the annual management charge from your fund provider, and the second is the charge for a new investment.
The charge for a new investment is 1% of the value of the investment. This applies to:
- A lump sum purchase
- Each monthly contribution in a regular savings plan
- A new fund purchase when you sell and repurchase
These charges will be paid from your account. There's no charge for using the International Investment Centre or for surrendering your investments.

Additionak information
If you close your bank account, you won't be able to trade with the investments you hold.
Please remember that the value of investments, and any income received from them, can fall as well as rise, is not guaranteed and you may not get back the amount you invested. This could also happen as a result of changes in currency exchange rates, particularly where overseas securities are held or where investments are converted from one currency to another. We always recommend that any investments held should be viewed as a medium to long-term investment, at least five years.
