Protected 80 Fund

The aim of the Protected 80 Fund is to offer you the potential to earn real investment returns while limiting your exposure to risk. The fund is an actively managed fund which invests up to 70% in the equity based Dynamic Fund and the balance in a cash fund. The fund has a Protected Price equal to 80% of its highest ever unit price. The protection to the fund from falling below this Protected Price is provided by Barclays Bank plc* and not by Zurich Life. The allocation to the Dynamic Fund varies between a target maximum exposure of 70%** and a minimum of 0% depending on investment conditions and how close the Fund’s price is to its Protected Price. The fund will reduce its allocation to the Dynamic Fund when the Dynamic Fund unit price is falling, protecting the Fund from further falls. It will increase its allocation when the Dynamic Fund unit price is rising, allowing the fund to benefit from future rises. This fund invests some of its assets outside the eurozone so a currency risk arises for a euro investor.

*Zurich reserves the right to replace Barclays Bank plc with another institution at any stage.

**70% is the target maximum exposure to the Dynamic Fund. It is possible for the Fund to have a higher exposure to the Dynamic Fund at certain times.
