1. High-net-worth

I make this statement so that I can receive promotional communications which are exempt

from the restriction on promotion of non-readily realisable securities.

I had, throughout the financial year immediately preceding the date below, an annual income

to the value of £100,000 or more. Annual income for these purposes does not include money

withdrawn from my pension savings (except where the withdrawals are used directly for

income in retirement).

value of £250,000 or more. Net assets for these purposes do not include the property which is my primary residence or any money raised through a loan secured on that property.

means:

realisable securities;

ii. The investments to which the promotions will relate may expose me to a significant

risk of losing all of the property invested.

at least the last six months prior to the date below;
