Thinking of investing in the Zurich Vista Gold plan
It would be purely the savings part with out life, critical and waiver cover.

Is it any good and how does it rank against others

    One assumes that you are an expat or international investor? Otherwise the product is unsuitable for you.

    Its expensive but then most offshore products are. It is also quite inflexible based on modern alternatives. Zurich isnt known for forward thinking, low cost, flexible products. After all, their UK background is Allied Dunbar. That should tell you a lot.
    I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.
  • GeoH, it is too late to save you, but anyone else who is doing a search avoid Zurich products. Poor service HIGH fees. The only way they get investors is by paying a high commission to shady financial investors who are looking out for themselves rather than the client. So in a nutshell the ZURICH business plan is charge the client high fees and then give a good percentage of that high fee back to the FA as a reward for scamming the client.
