Shall I terminate by bank investment product?

Dear Mr Tan

I have invested $5000 on an investment product from a bank which give me 10% upfront. The investment will mature upon reaching 15% or upon a period of 10 years. It is based on the 3 least performance funds to determine the % of gain.

After 3 years, I notice that the gain is always 0%. Should I cancel this investment? Is it not advisable to buy investment products from banks as their charges are higher?

Dear ET

You should ask the bank what you will get, if you terminate the plan now. I suspect that you might have to suffer a loss. In that case, it may not make sense for you to withdraw from the plan.
