Cfd is index linked to cpi and not energy inflation.
So inflation target is 2%
But energy inflation went awol which dragged up cpi.
The question then becomes will cpi be higher than energy inflation over the 15 year period.
The whole point of cfd is to stabilise pricing.
Investors know how much they will get for 15 years and the government knows if the markets go crazy it will keep prices down for 15 years.
It’s likely without war the prices won’t get so silly for a good few years, but if war breaks out prices will go silly the question then becomes does the government step in again to help mitigate the price rise some of which would come from money raised by the cfd???
It’s a very complicated decision.
because you don’t know what your agreeing to at all.
I am happy if the cfd is the same or better for the 15 year period, the hope being if prices sky rocket due to war that the government step in but that’s not a guarantee it’s a hope
