How winwin® term deposit works

Guaranteed interest is calculated from the purchase date. Return is determined by the growth of the index from the opening index to the closing index.

Even if the closing index value is lower than the opening index level, you'll still have your entire principal investment paid out at maturity. If the closing index value is higher than the opening index value, the winwin® term deposit will pay your principal investment plus all index-related returns above the minimum guaranteed return at maturity.
