    Hi all,
    I currently have my equity SSIA set up so 50% is "High risk" and 50% "medium risk". With the way the markets are at the minute do you think I would be wish to change it so 100% is "low risk" ie invested in cash and bonds, or should I just leave it as is and ride out the storm?

    If you don't have long to go - change to low risk as you won't gain that much with high risk in a short period of time but could potentially lose a lot.

    Are you going to cash it in when the SSIA ends?
    You could keep it in and cash in when the markets bounce back.
    Buy low sell high and all that ;)
