Reasons to invest
Your investment will be sent to the Capital Bridge which is a trading name for
Capital Bridge Bond Co 1 Limited

Finance Solutions Limited (“CBFS”) who will lend to hand-picked property
developers in the UK
CBFS ensures that strict criteria are adhered to and will only onward lend to
borrowers who can satisfy these requirements

Investment Potential
INVESTMENT EXAMPLE:
The investment raised from The Capital Bridge bond ultimately gives experienced property
developers the chance to access finance in a very short space of time, either to acquire new
property quickly, or to further develop existing commercial assets, provided that they can
meet or exceed the appropriate criteria and can offer adequate security to secure CBFS’s’ loan.
This is a way for borrowers to avoid the lengthy and energy-consuming process of applying for
mainstream finance, which can often take several months to complete. Instead, a loan from
CBFS can be paid out within two to three weeks of the date of application.
This swift and flexible lending model allows CBFS to charge higher fees and interest than the
traditional banks. Loans are typically repaid when the property has been built, refurbished or
simply re-sold at a higher price. The arrangement is beneficial to both parties; the borrower is
able to capitalise on an opportunity that may not have been available to them via traditional
banking routes, and the lender sees a significant return on the funds which is in turn is passed
on to bond investors.

Investor Security
Always obtain a personal guarantee from the director (if the loan is to a limited
company)
Ensure all legal agreements and legal representation between all parties is
conducted by experienced property lawyers
Ensure that any monies are paid directly into a solicitor’s client account and
only released when adequate security has been provided and other relevant
criteria met

FAQs
Who is my ISA Manager?
The Capital Bridge ISA is managed by Northern Provident Investments, an ISA manager
Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”). FRN: 647948
What is an IFISA?
The UK Government introduced the Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA) on 6th April 2016. This new type of ISA
allows individuals to use some (or all) of their annual ISA investment allowance to invest into debentures
such as the Bonds, and then to receive all the interest earned tax-free. It is important to understand that
with an IFISA your capital is at risk and it is important you read the associated risks with this investment in
the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this Information Memorandum. Tax treatment depends on the
individual circumstances of each investor and may be subject to change in future.

Capital @ Risk
As with all investments capital is at risk. The value of your investment
can go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
The Capital Bridge has tried to mitigate this by working with the CBFS.
They will undertake the following to achieve this:
1. Only loan to known, experienced property developers.
2. Legal representation a prerequisite for both sides.
3. Maximum loan to value of 80%.
4. Take a legal charge against the property being loaned against.
5. A debenture can be taken over the assets of the development company (lender)
6. All monies are held in escrow
Impact of fees
There are no set up and management fees, they are absorbed by The Capital Bridge meaning the returns
you see will be the returns you ultimately get. However, there are fees associated with elements such as
early transfer out of the ISA. Full details of the fees payable by investors to Northern Provident Investments
Limited are set out in The Capital Bridge ISA Terms and Conditions, and these will reduce the net return on
your investment.
Diversification
Diversification means spreading your investments across different asset classes and sectors.
All investments through The Capital Bridge ISA will be in bonds, you should be aware that all monies
invested will be in the same sector and through the same asset class. You should consider spreading your
investment risk and seek independent advice when you are not sure if an investment is suitable. You are
not able to invest more than 10% of your net assets through The Capital Bridge ISA in the bond unless you
are a high net worth investor, a certified sophisticated investor or a self-certified sophisticated investor.
20
Non-ready realisable investment
Investors should be aware that the bonds you will invest in are non-readily realisable investments.
Investment through the Capital Bridge ISA in the bond should be viewed as a long-term investment. It may
be possible for the bonds to be sold but it may be difficult to sell the bonds held through the Capital Bridge
ISA. Past performance of financing is not necessarily a guide to future performance. Past events,
experience derived from these, or assumptions derived from any of these, do not predetermine the future.
Inflation Risk
You should be aware that if the return on the bond fails to pay a return that beats inflation, the real value
of your investment could fall.
No FSCS Protection
The Capital Bridge ISA is managed by Northern Provident Investments, an ISA plan manager authorised
and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the bonds that you will invest in are issued by
The Capital Bridge, which does not carry on regulated activities for which authorisation is required and
so it is not authorised by the FCA. Therefore, losses incurred by the failure of the bonds would not be
protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (“FSCS”). If The Capital Bridge ceases
to exist or goes into liquidation you would not be able to put in a complaint through the FSCS.
21
Minimum investment £2k Transfer your existing ISA
* Asset backed ISA and diversified project portfolios help to minimise associated investment risk. The fact that the bond is asset backed would not guarantee
22 that all capital would be repaid. This also means that there is a liquidity risk and there is likely to be a delay in repaying your capital should you request it.
** Tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each investor and may be subject to change in future.
