Capital guaranteed structured products or Principal Protected Notes are typically linked to the performance of some underlying financial instrument such as indices, equities, fixed income, commodities, mutual funds or alternative investments. Principal Protected Notes offer investor's full capital protection if held to maturity.
Principal-protected products offer Canadians a unique set of investment and taxation benefits over and above the obvious insurance benefit of the capital guarantee at maturity. The key to investing in these products is considering both the soundness of the underlying investment as well as the potential benefits when added to an investment portfolio.
