Investment Planning Service

A balanced approach to investing

What do you want from your investments? Chances are that there is no simple, straightforward answer. In truth, no single investment is likely to satisfy all your needs. That's why we're here - to help you choose the ones that are best for you.

You may wish to consider dividing your money between short-term flexibility and the potential for long-term growth. If you think about it, you probably don't need all your cash immediately to hand. As long as you have enough money for your everyday needs, and a bit put by in case the unexpected ever happens, the rest could be invested for growth potential over the medium to long-term.

You should be aware that these investments are different to the savings accounts offered by the Barnsley, because of the underlying assets used to deliver a return on your money. They are also unsuitable as short-term investments. Although there is the potential for higher returns, neither your capital nor the returns are guaranteed, and the value of your investment may go down as well as up. You could therefore get back less than you invest. However, capital guarantees are available on some funds and bond products subject to certain terms and conditions, for example the Capital Protection Plus Bond.
