Alico launches latest structured investment

16th June 2010 Print

Alico Wealth Management launches the latest in a series of structured investments - the Controlled Opportunity Growth Structure 2 (COGS 2) - following the successful launch of the first COGS investment last month.

COGS 2 will be available through the products in Alico's Select Portfolio, with a gross version for clients investing in the Retirement Plan/ISA and a net version for investment bond/Advantage Investment Plan clients. It will work in exactly the same way as the first COGS investment:

Clients will have the ability to control the level of capital they expose to potential market falls, while also having the opportunity to benefit from any growth in the FTSE 100

There will be 11 different risk settings, ranging from full capital protection to a potential loss of capital on a one-to-one basis if the market falls

By choosing their risk setting, clients set their level of opportunity for growth, with the potential for the value of their investment to increase by up to 190% of any percentage rise in the market over a five year investment period

COGS 2 is available now, with the offer period closing on July 30.

Mark Hawthorne, product director at Alico Wealth Management, comments: "In response to the positive reaction which followed the launch of the first COGS investment, we decided to launch COGS 2 - the latest in a series of structured investments.

"The ability to set the level of risk and return on offer means that clients can select an investment that is tailored to their individual circumstances. The fact that it is available through all of the products in the Select Portfolio makes COGS 2 suitable for a wide range of investors.

"Once again, Alico guarantees that it will pay the promised returns even if the assets default, removing the counterparty risk normally associated with structured investments."
