You are right. I think it is more appropriate the name the funds capital protected rather than capital guaranteed, because there is no presence of a guarantor.

I just added AmMulti Asset Cap. Guaranteed in the list.

Thanks!

to your list: AmMulti Asset Capital Guaranteed..

cap protected works the same way as cap guaranteeds, with the exception of a guarantor. capital protection still stem from the maturity value of the znids. having a guarantor increases the cost to the manager thus leading to higher fees for the fund.

most fund mgrs are moving towards cap protected.
