Risk Disclosure

Investment involves risks. The prices of investment products fluctuate, sometimes dramatically, and may become valueless. Before making any investment decisions, customers are encouraged to consult their own independent financial advisors and read the relevant offering documents for further details including the risk factors in order to ensure that they fully understand the risks associated with the investment products.

The return on FX Linked Deposit is limited to the nominal interest payable, which will be dependent, to at least some extent, on movements in some specified currency exchange rates. Whilst the possible return may be higher than conventional time deposits, it is normally associated with higher risks. When the fluctuation of the currency exchange rates differs from what the customer expects, the customer may have to bear the consequential losses. The relative losses may reduce the return and the principal amount of the FX Linked Deposit which the customer may get back. Currency exchange rates are affected by a wide range of factors, including national and international financial and economic conditions and political and natural events. The effects of normal market forces may at times be countered by intervention by central banks and other bodies. At times, exchange rates, and prices linked to such rates, may rise or fall rapidly.
