If you already have a Flexible Guarantee Investment with a guarantee, the charge for this will be shown in your product documentation or yearly statement.

- The guarantee choices available to you will depend on the date your bond started.
- The charges for buying a new Guarantee can change at any time, but once you've bought a Guarantee it's charge will not change during the Guarantee term.
- Guarantees are bought at an extra monthly cost and are explained fully within the product documentation.
