“Negative Returns”
Written on: 30/08/2019 by BWH43 (1 review written)
Having always banked with HSBC i was happy to hand over my daughters CTF voucher with them and open an account in her name. What a mistake. After making regular payments for the first few years i stopped having seen no increase in the funds overall value.

I realise there is a global recession, however none of our other investments (ISAs, business shares, standard savings accounts, pension funds) can match this for percentage of investment lost (in fact everything else has grown or at the very least stayed the same). Our independent financial advisor was appalled, as are we… Read Full Review

This is an investment over the long term. You cannot expect it to
guarantee a return. Perfomance has been much better
over the last 12 months - I am staying with it for now…

Written on: 09/01/2009
The overall service offered by HSBC Child Trust Fund is OK. Worth significantly less money than initially put in. Would mind if it at least broke even - we're aware that funds can go down as well as up.
Switching out of HSBC…

Bwh43's Response to Miels's Review
Written on: 30/08/2019
We have experienced the same issue. Have also lost in excess of £500 value over the course of the last 8 years. Almost as though HSBC have nobody managing this fund from their end. Poor show from an otherwise trustworthy bank.
