Stock market investment is about making the right choices, but with so many different aspects to consider, it can sometimes be hard to see the big picture.

HSBC Bank International has just announced the latest Capital Secured Growth Funds (CSGF) offering, The Director’s Collection, which is composed of three new funds. Not only are these funds designed to protect the investor’s capital, but they also offer good growth potential at the end of five years. These funds are available for sale.

The latest award winning investment releases are:

• The Nasdaq-100 Fund: with this fund investors can enjoy the excellent growth potential of some of the world’s largest and best-known companies listed on the Nasdaq-100 Index.

• The Pacific Partners Fund: an opportunity to invest in indices in parts of the world that look set for strong growth. Investing in this fund offers the potential to benefit from a return based on the bright future prospects of indices linked to China, Hong Kong and Singapore.

• The Titans Fund: linked to the performance of the Dow Jones Global Titans Index. This fund gives the opportunity for unlimited growth potential from some of the world’s largest blue chip companies such as Nokia, Toyota and Microsoft.

Customers who invest by 8 April will be given an extra allocation of shares and this offer will be extended up to 26 April for those who invested in CSGF 3.

The minimum investment required is $/£/e5,000. The new issue is a limited offer and may close early if over-subscribed.

“These NASDAQ and Titans Funds offer an opportunity to local investors to participate in the performance of some of the world’s largest and best known companies without directly investing in shares, while The Pacific Partners Fund provides an attractive vehicle for investors to participate in the potential growth of three major Far East Indices,” said HSBC Investment Services (Malta) Ltd managing director Charles Azzopardi.

“All of our CSGF Funds are designed to provide capital protection for the investor,” he continued.
