So how does it all work?

Choose monthly contributions to suit you
Saving for your future doesn't have to cost much. You can
choose to save any amount between £25 and £100 a month. If
you wish to save more than £100 per month, you are able to take out
more than one plan.
If you use the plan to save for a child's future, you will have
the peace of mind of knowing that the money from the plan will be
paid to you, so you can help to decide what it is spent on.
The Guaranteed Savings Plan is suitable as a long-term regular
savings plan and you must continue to pay your chosen monthly
contribution for the term of the plan for the guarantees to
apply.

You decide how long you save for
You can select any term from 10 to 25 years and you can even
pick a special or specific date for your plan to mature.

What we mean by 'Guaranteed cash sum and in-built growth'?
Once the savings term ends and you have paid all of your monthly
contributions, you are guaranteed to receive back at least what you
have paid in as a lump sum. What's more, if you contribute
£26 or more into the plan each month, you are guaranteed to get
back more than you have paid in. The higher the monthly
contribution you choose, the higher the guaranteed in-built growth
will be.
The table below demonstrates the level of in-built growth alone,
without taking any additional growth into consideration.

The guarantees only apply when all monthly payments are
maintained for the full term of the plan. Please remember that this
is a long-term savings plan, if you cash it in before the end of
the selected term you could get back less than you have paid in, or
nothing if this is in the first year.

Is there potential for additional growth?
In a word - Yes. All the money paid into the Guaranteed
Savings Plan goes into our Order Insurance With Profits Fund, which
is invested across a balanced mix of assets - including property,
UK government bonds, equities and cash - to help minimise
over-exposure to risk. There is no interest rate on the plan,
instead the With Profits Fund provides your plan with the potential
for growth, by way of bonuses which may be added annually as well
as an additional final bonus when the plan matures.
Bonuses are in addition to the guaranteed return and add to the
overall growth of your plan increasing the amount you will receive
at maturity, provided you continue to pay your monthly
contributions for the full term of the plan.
Over the past 5 years, we have paid bonuses on all the plans we
are currently selling, however the addition of bonuses is not
guaranteed and will depend on the performance of the Order
Insurance With Profits Fund and how we decide to distribute the
profits.
Please refer to the Guaranteed
Savings Plan Key Features Document for further information on
how our Order Insurance With Profits Fund works.
