Co-operative
Bank - CIS Unit Trust
Introduction
It is usually accepted that, over the medium to long term
(at least 5 years), investing in the stock market has the
potential to provide higher returns than, say, deposit savings
accounts. CIS Unit Trusts provide an easy way to invest in
the stock market. Their range of unit trusts (managed by CIS
Unit Managers Ltd) - offer a balanced approach to stock market
investment. However, you should bear in mind that a unit trust
is a different kind of investment from a bank or building
society account. Whilst the capital in such an account is
secure, a unit trust is an equity based investment and its
value may fluctuate. Neither the value of the investment nor
the income from it is guaranteed. Exchange rate changes may
also cause the value of overseas investments to go up or down.
