Thoughts on Cantor Fitzgrald 85% Bond

    Hi,

    I was recommended by a FA to invest into a bond called Cantor Fitzgerald ESG 85% Progressive Protection Bond. It states the bond protects to a minmum repaymet of 89% of the highest NAV ever achieved. But it required a minimum invest of €25K.

    I'm not very clear does this 85% protection means say if I invest €25k today, the max risk I will lose is 15% of my €25k?

    Does anyone ever heard of this bond and any thoughts on it?

    Thanks

    Looked it up it's an open ended in investment this means you can stay in as long as you like. Not only is 85% of your original capital protected but there is continuous protection on the highest daily gain it makes.

    Your protection climbs to match the highest market day for the fund it seems

    Seems like a good long-term investment

    If your FA isn’t giving you a clear rationale for this choice, they’re not a great advisor.

    What fees and charges apply?

    Go over to the askaboutmoney.com site and read the several analysis posts on why these are not a great idea, unless you are selling them, that is.
