Long Term Care Planning may involve a referral to Karehero, a care navigator and matching service provider, whose services are separate and distinct to those offered by St. Jame's Place. The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested. An investment in equities does not provide the security of capital associated with a deposit account with a bank or building society. The levels and bases of taxation and reliefs from taxation can change at any time. The value of any tax relief depends on individual circumstances.
