Please remember that the value of an investment and the income from it can go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested. We don't give advice so if you are in any doubt about making your own investment decisions we recommend you seek advice from a suitably qualified financial adviser. There will normally be a charge for that advice. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may change in the future.
