Dear Mr Sample

In the press recently, you may have seen advertisements like the one enclosed. Many careful investors have already used it to find out about a with profits bond which offers a ‘Triple Promise’.

This means you receive a 1st Year Guarantee of 9%. Every penny is invested right from day one and there is a Higher investment Bonus of up to 2%.

You are free to invest almost any amount from £2,500 upwards - and we promise you competitive charges for this type of bond and a penalty free withdrawal facility.

if you are one of those investors who are fed up with low interest rates, looking for a good return on your money - but very careful where you put it - this bond could be very good news indeed.

Called the Mutual Investment Bond, it aims to provide a profitable halfway house between the extremes; savings accounts paying low interest on the one hand and volatile stocks and shares on the other. There is no time limit on the investment, but ideally you should be prepared to leave your money in for at least 5 years.

Of course, to assess the advantages properly for yourself, you will need to see more details.

The Mutual Investment Bond is offered by Liverpool and Victoria Friendly Society Limited - a ‘mutual’ - and the UK’s No.1 Friendly Society, looking after 3.9 billion of savings and investments for our 1.1 million Members.

To receive an information pack, simply post the coupon. You will of course be under no obligation whatsoever. A reply-paid envelope is enclosed for you.

Yours sincerely,
