Investment Bonds

Portfolio bond

Whatever your future plans are, Aviva can help you get there with our investment bond - Portfolio. As one of the UK's leading providers of investment bonds, you'll be dealing with an organisation with an outstanding investment pedigree.

Although Portfolio has no fixed term, it's important to understand that it is designed for a long-term financial commitment. It provides a way of investing in funds in a number of different assets, for example property or stocks and shares - you choose which suits you best according to the levels of risk and return you are looking for. It's important to remember that the value of the investment and any income from it can go down as well as up and you may not get back what you originally invested.

Your investment is managed by expert fund managers from both Aviva and other leading investment companies. Our Portfolio lets you invest with the aim of increasing the value of your money, providing you with an income or a combination of the two. (This isn't income in the sense that earnings and interest are income payments. All withdrawals from your bond are capital payments. Income tax is payable only when a chargeable gain is made, not on the cash withdrawal itself). It can be a tax efficient way of investing, depending on your circumstances and choice of fund.

So, whether you're aiming to buy a holiday home in the sun, support your children through university or just be able to take things a little easier when you reach a certain age, an Aviva Portfolio bond could provide the answers you're looking for.
