£17K to invest, need monthly income

bowf · 2005-09-21 14:50:57

We currently have £24K invested in an A+L account,but the interest is calculated annually. We'd rather invest in an account with monthly interest. We don't want to 'trickle feed' the new account though. We'd rather just invest the full £24K in a lump sum and be done with it. Any pointers to the best option ???

My Mum needs to put the money somewhere where the capital sum is not at risk (the £17k) and where she can receive a monthly income from the sum.

There are some investment products that can do that as well. just to complicate the issue
