Effects of Compound Interest

THE VALUE OF PENSIONS AND THE INCOME THEY PRODUCE CAN FALL AS WELL AS RISE. YOU MAY GET BACK LESS THAN YOU INVESTED.

The effects of compound interest are remarkable over 5, 15 or even 50 years if you start early enough. For example, at just 7.5% pa compound interest you will have achieved a 43% increase in your money after 5 years. After 15 years it will be worth 3 times your investment and after 50 years, a staggering 37 times your original investment. No matter how old you are you should be contributing towards your retirement.
