    What are structured products?

    Structured products are products that have been specifically tailored (or structured) by combining shares, bonds, indices or commodities with financial instruments to achieve a specific investment outcome. 

    A common feature of a structured product is the protection of your capital. 

    Structured products can be an attractive addition to an investor’s portfolio as they are a tailored investment that may offer principal protection, 100% finance and exposure to various investment options.  

    Key benefits of structured products

    Structured products with both capital protection and a 100% investment loan can offer a range of benefits, including:

    • Potentially higher returns. Capital protected structured products give investors the opportunity to invest in asset classes they may have previously considered too risky. The capital protection provides comfort for investors, allowing them to benefit from the stronger return potential of these asset classes.

      Those products that offer a 100% investment loan also provide investors with the potential to accelerate their investment performance.
    • Peace of mind. The availability of capital protection allows investors to take advantage of potential market highs while being protected from the lows.
    • Potential tax advantages. If borrowing to invest, investors may be able to claim a partial or full tax deduction for the interest and fees paid each year.
