Guaranteed Equity Bond

Potential return linked to the FTSE 100 index

The NS&I Guaranteed Equity Bond (GEB) Issue 19 offers you a potential return linked to the FTSE 100 index – up to a maximum of 50% (8.45% AER*) at the end of the 5-year term – while keeping your capital 100% secure.

The return is calculated by comparing the level of the FTSE 100 index at the start and end of the investment term, subject to averaging. For full details, see How it works.

Remember – the FTSE 100 index measures share prices only and doesn’t include dividends. The returns are paid gross but are liable to UK Income Tax when the Bonds mature.

Our GEB Issue 19 is only available for a limited time – the offer closes on 23 November 2009 or earlier if fully subscribed.

Did you invest in Issue 9 of our Guaranteed Equity Bond?
As Issue 9 of our GEB is maturing on 10 November 2009, we recently wrote to all investors to give them an estimated valuation and to let them know their options for reinvesting in Issue 19. If you invested in Issue 9 but haven’t heard from us yet, please contact us.

If you want to reinvest the proceeds of your Issue 9 Bond into Issue 19, please complete the form enclosed with your letter and return it to us in the envelope provided by 5 November 2009 (sorry but we can’t accept reinvestment applications online or by phone). Remember that Issue 19 is a limited offer so please let us know in good time to make sure you don’t miss out. If you’d rather reinvest the money into another NS&I investment, just call us and we’ll send you an application form for the investment you’re interested in.
