Insurance companies offer Guaranteed Income Bonds. They pledge a fixed income over a certain amount of time, from one to five years.
What is a Guaranteed Income Bond?
A Guaranteed Income Bond is a life assurance based investment which guarantees to provide a fixed income over a fixed term. A fixed term means a set period of time. In addition, the original investment is guaranteed to be repaid in full at the end of the term. The term is usually between three and five years.
Guaranteed Income Bonds are suitable for:
Guaranteed Income Bonds are suitable for people who want to achieve a known fixed level of income over a given period of time. Furthermore, the chosen provider calculates interest on the daily balance held in your bond at the chosen fixed rate. The interest is then paid to your nominated bank account as a regular income. For example, this will either be monthly, quarterly or annually, as agreed.
I have been delighted with the friendly, professional and personal service I receive from Choice Financial Solutions. It was particularly important to me after a significant change in personal circumstances to have the confidence that I was getting expert advice from someone who knew me and the family and could tailor solutions to best fit with us. The yearly meetings with John are very valuable as it is important to me that I can get advice from someone I trust and know I can reply on, and on the occasions where I have contacted John with a query or concern I have always had a prompt and efficient reply… That is why I am still a client!

We have been using Choice since they started business. John Quaif is always clear and honest, qualities that have endeared him to us. If there is an issue he’s quick to deal with it and does so having full regard for the client’s perspective. In a way that’s an even more powerful confirmation of the principles underpinning the company. John took over management of our pensions and rapidly kicked things into shape, so we are indebted to him! The review sessions are always well prepared and informative. And the up to date market information is always fascinating! So far, John has managed to preserve the personal touch despite the growth of the company. This is certainly important to us.

Having had interaction with several financial services companies over a number of years, it’s reassuring to find a trustworthy and diligent firm which really delivers a great service, not just the statutory minimum, but genuinely informative reporting and advisory communications. My returns have been better than expected and I feel that, as the client, I’m actually more important than simply their percentage. Well done Choice and John Quaif.
