Cash Trust - The basics

• A unit trust gives you a share of an investment fund. The aim of the Legal & General Cash Trust is to provide the potential for higher returns on your cash deposits than are available on the high street, without exposing you to the risks of the stock market. Please note that the Cash Trust is not a deposit account and your capital is not guaranteed.
• The fund invests in deposits with major banks and building societies.
• Your money is pooled with thousands of other investors across a range of deposits to get you a better rate than you may be able to get on your own.
• The value of your investment rises in line with the interest received from the banks and building societies invested in. You'll receive a statement detailing this every six months.
• You can apply online today for the Cash Trust.
