Cancellations - You will receive notice of your right to cancel as required by law, and you will then have 14 days in which you can change your mind. If you choose to cancel you will be given the option of having your money returned to you.

ISA transfers: If you cancel an ISA Transfer and choose to have your money returned to you, the tax free status of your funds will be lost. For current year contributions this means you cannot place these funds in another cash ISA during the same tax year. You can transfer your ISA to another provider without losing your ISA entitlement. You’ll need to contact your new provider and complete a transfer application form; your new provider will then get in touch with Legal & General. If you do transfer your money out early you could get back less than originally invested.

What are the risks?

You should be aware of the following risks before investing:

  • You will not be able to withdraw funds from the Deposit Plan until the end of the six year term.
  • If Nationwide, or the bank or building society providing the Legal & General client bank account became insolvent you may lose some or all of your money.
  • The value of the money you invest will depreciate unless the performance of the product meets or exceeds the rate of inflation.
  • If you have to take out money from the ISA before the end of the six year term, you may get back less than you originally invested.
  • In the event of your death during the six year term and the early closure of the Plan by your beneficiaries, the amount returned may be less than your original investment.

Notes

Tax treatment is dependent on individual circumstances. The tax information provided is based on our current understanding of current law and HM Revenue & Customs practice which can change.

* AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate which illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year. This allows you to compare any minimum and maximum potential returns with other savings products. The gross rate of interest is the interest payable before any income tax is deducted.
