Shareholder perks, benefits
and discounts
This is a summary of the known shareholder perks available as at May 2019.
Full terms and eligibility should be checked with the registrar. Shareholder perks, terms and eligibility can change or be withdrawn at any point.
To claim a shareholder perk on an investment held with HL, or to ask a question about shareholder perks, call 0117 900 9000, or email us.
Shareholder perks are not reason alone for buying shares in a company. Over time, shares and any income they pay will rise and fall in value, so you could get back less than you invest. If you're not sure if an investment is right for you, please speak to a financial adviser. Find out more about our service and charges.
