Risk Disclosure
Investment products and insurance products are not equivalent to or alternative of normal time deposits. They are not protected deposits, and are not protected by the Deposit Protection Scheme in Hong Kong. Investment involves risks. The prices of investment products and foreign exchange rates fluctuate, sometimes dramatically. And investment products may become valueless. Before making any investment decision, 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.

Securities Trading
It is as likely that losses will be incurred rather than profits made as a result of buying and selling securities.

Securities Margin Trading
If a client maintains a margin account with the Bank, the risk of loss in financing a transaction by deposit of collateral is significant. The client may sustain losses in excess of the client’s cash and any other assets deposited as collateral with the Bank. Market conditions may make it impossible to execute contingent orders, such as “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” orders. The client may be called upon at short notice to make additional margin deposits or interest payment. If the required margin deposits or interest payments are not made within the prescribed time, the client’s securities collateral may be liquidated without the client’s consent. Moreover, the client will remain liable for any resulting deficit in the client’s account and interest charged on the client’s account. The client should therefore carefully consider whether such a financing arrangement is suitable in light of the client’s own financial position and investment objectives.

Mutual Fund
The past performance of a mutual fund is not a guide to its future performance and yields are not guaranteed. Customers could lose some or all of the principal amount invested. Funds are not obligations of, or guaranteed by, the Bank or any of its affiliates. The Bank will normally be paid a commission or rebate by the fund manager.

Online Investment Trading Services
Due to unpredictable network traffic congestion and other reasons, the Internet and other electronic media may not be reliable media of communication and transactions conducted over the Internet and via other electronic media are subject to: (i) possible failure or delay in the transmission and receipt of instructions for any or all transactions in investment products or other information, and (ii) possible failure or delay of execution or execution at prices different from those prevailing at the time when your instructions were given. There are risks associated with the online investment trading system, including the failure of hardware and/or software, and the result of any such system failure may be that your orders are either not executed according to your instructions or are not executed at all. There are risks of interruption, distortion, omission, blackout or interception during the transmission of instructions for any or all transactions in investment products, as well as of any misunderstanding or errors in communication.

Insurance
Customers should read the sales documents, including product brochure, benefit illustration (if applicable) and policy documents and provisions issued by relevant insurance company to understand the details of the insurance plan (including but not limited to detailed terms, conditions, coverage, exclusions, fees and product risks) and consider whether the insurance product meets their personal needs before application. Policyholders are subject to the credit risk of relevant insurance company.

For life insurance product, an insurance plan may comprise a savings element. Part of the premium will be paid for the insurance and related costs. If a customer is not completely satisfied with his/her life insurance policy, the customer has a right to cancel it within the cooling off period and obtain a refund of relevant premium and levy paid. To exercise such right, a notice of cancellation signed by the customer must be received by relevant insurance company’s Hong Kong Main Office within the cooling off period (i.e. within 21 calendar days immediately following either the day of the delivery of the policy or delivery of a Cooling-off Notice (stating the availability of the policy and expiry date of the cooling off period) to the customer or the customer’s nominated representative, whichever is the earlier). After the cooling off period is expired, if a customer cancels the policy before maturity, the surrender value may be less than the total premium the customer has paid.
