Any one done any?

Thanks for the replies, they do sound good initially because of the guarantees put in them, whether that be zero loss or only losses if the index falls below 50% of starting figure. However you don't get any dividends which could easily account for 4 or 5% a year at the moment even if the share price goes no where! Over 5 years that could be a 25% return anyway! And IFA's getting 5% initial commission mean there must be a fair chunk of charges built in some visible some not I guess. I would be interested in a Bearish structured product though, so benfit if the index/s go down rather than up and no loss if the market is say 50% above its current value. I think that would be a good hedging tool and addition to a portfolio. I can't seem to find any though so am looking at getting a bespoke one put together maybe.
