Regive. Please comment on any of these :-

1 I-CAP
2 Investec FTSE Enhanced Kick-Out Plan 30
3 Morgan Stanley FTSE Defensive Bonus Plan 3
4 Investec FTSE Bonus Income Plan 25
5 L&G Early Bonus Plan 7

Am I missing something ( behave now ) as these all seem just as risky?

Thanks in advance

    Can't speak for I-CAP but the others are well known names with corporate headquarters and well-established track records.

    Why are you comparing complicated structured investment plans with Re-Give's offering?

    Re-Give are claiming to offer a 1 year fixed interest savings account. However if you want to compare it with something I would suggest a fair equivalent would be an unsecured fixed income company bond with a dodgy company.

    Personally I wouldn't touch anything on your list.

    That is how I feel too. Just trying to see the differences. But maybe shows why I save and do not invest. :rotfl:
