HSBC Investments launches new funds

Four capital secured funds have been launched by HSBC Investments (International) within its Foundation range. The UK Growth Fund, Hong Kong Growth Fund and European Growth Fund each feature more than 100% exposure to the capital return of their relevant index. The fourth offering, the Resources Bonus fund, is a three-year product that offers exposure to a basket of 16 energy and mining-related stocks, and potential for a bonus to be paid at each anniversary. Minimum investment varies according to the fund, but starts at £5000, $5000 or €5,000.
