Structured products continue to meet needs of investors, latest research from UKSPA shows

16 June 2021: Today, the UK Structured Products Association ("UKSPA") announces the results from recent consumer research, showing that structured products continue to meet the needs of investors in the UK.

Over the last five years, the structured product industry has been conducting independent research to take an in-depth look into the investment needs and behaviours if UK investors, exploring their views  on various markets and their risk appetite, and analysing how these evolve over time. Interviewing over 2,000 investors each time, the research highlights some interesting developments over the last five years.

Most striking are the results indicate that many investors still believe that markets such as the FTSE 100 may not rise over the medium term, and that structured products are increasingly adopted by investors to meet their needs.

For example:

Half (49%) of all survey respondents said they were happy to leave a portion of their money invested for 5 to 10 years in order to achieve their financial goals.

60% of those we surveyed are interested in investing in investing in equality indices like the FTSE 100, but only half of these expect equity indices to rise over a 5-10 year horizon (42% are neutral and 7% think they will actually decrease in value over the medium term).
