Unit Trusts Guide
Can I get access to my money?
Yes, you can cash in your unit trust at any time. This
could be in full or in part, or as a regular withdrawal
to provide you with an income.
If you take out amounts that are more than the accumulated
growth of your trust, this will reduce its value.
Some unit trusts may apply a penalty on withdrawal or encashment,
but this varies between trusts and fund managers. You should
always read the terms of your unit trust carefully and pay
close attention to any conditions relating to withdrawal
of money.
As with any investment connected to stocks and shares,
you should be prepared to invest your capital over a period
of at least five years. There is no restriction on how long
you can invest beyond this.
