16. An index-linked value will be calculated as V x B/A where:
(a) 'V' is the value of the Certificate at the beginning of the index-linked period (this will be the purchase price or the value at an anniversary date);
(b) 'A' is the Index figure applicable to the calendar month in which the first day of the index-linked period falls (this day will be the purchase date or an anniversary of it); and
(c) ‘B’ is the index figure applicable to the calendar month in which the day after the final day of the index-linked period falls. This will be the maturity date, an anniversary date, or the day after the last completed month for which index-linking is earned.
If you can't understand that this does not apply monthly figures, only the spot figure at the anniversary dates, I hope you don't work in finance.
If you buy and inflation is 1% it goes up to 10000000% in the middle of the year and goes back down to 1%, you get 1% for the year.
