Typical questions asked about our Capital Plan
How much can I save in the Capital Plan?
The Government restricts the amount that an individual can save in a tax-exempt plan because of the tax concessions available. Under current legislation the maximum individual investment is £25 per month or £270 annually. The amount you can save in the Sheffield Mutual Capital Plan is
£2,500.
Who can save in this Capital Plan?
Anyone with £2,500 to invest who has no other tax exempt savings plans either with Sheffield Mutual or another friendly society.
Can I select the term of my savings plan?
The term for a capital plan is 10 years.
Can I make early withdrawals?
You cannot make any withdrawals but if your circumstances change, providing you have paid at least one year's premiums, you can surrender your policy. However, the plan is designed for growth after medium to long term investment and the surrender value may be less than the amount you have paid in.
What happens if I die before the maturity date?
In the event of death before the end of the term, the Society will refund all premiums paid plus interest up to the date of death.
Is life cover included?
No, this plan does not include any life cover. However, we do offer plans, which have the additional benefit of life cover, and we will be pleased to supply further information to you.
