Investment Bonds
Lump sum investment bonds are especially important in a low-interest rate environment. We provide a free comprehensive and impartial comparison of the leading insured investment product providers in Ireland, with a range of options to suit most investors seeking to beat deposit rates and achieve much better investment returns.
- You should always try to hold some of your money as cash, but if you keep all of it in a deposit account, inflation can eat away at it – especially when interest rates are low.
- You must ensure that any investment you make matches your attitude to risk.
- You should be aware that early encashment, or withdrawal will often incur encashment penalties.
- The value of investments can go down as well as up.

Investment Advice – Things to consider
Investment Pointers
What’s the recommended minimum investment term of the product?
Some products may be suitable for short-term investment, while others may require you to take a longer-term view.
What kind of access will I have to my money?
Some products offer immediate access, while others may lock up your money for a particular period.
Does this product provide an income or capital growth?
Some products may be geared to provide regular income along the way, while others provide the opportunity for capital growth.
What is the associated investment risk?
Some products may guarantee to return your full investment while others may involve a risk of getting back less than you put in.
How will my returns be taxed?
The income and/or capital gain you earn may be taxed in different ways, depending on the type of product. For example, deposit interest may be subject to Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) while gains from life assurance savings and investment policies are subject to an ‘exit tax’ deduction before payment to you.
Investment Risk
Investment Risk Advice
Past performance is not a reliable guide to future performance. The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may lose some or all the money you invest, should you make the wrong investment decisions.
Investments denominated in a currency other than your base currency may be affected by changes in currency exchange rates. You should always seek professional investment advice before investing, match your risk profile to the underlying investment assets, and conduct regular reviews.
