3. Third Party Risks

3.1. It is understood that the Company will promptly place any Client money it receives into one or more segregated account(s) (denoted as clients\' accounts\') with reliable financial institutions (within or outside Cyprus or the EEA) such as a credit institution or a bank in a third country. The Company shall exercise due skill, care and diligence in the selection of the financial institution according to Applicable Regulations, It is, however, understood that there may be circumstances beyond the control of the Company and hence the Company does not accept any liability or responsibility for any resulting losses to the Client as a result of the insolvency or any other analogous proceedings or failure of the financial institution where Client money will be held.
3.2. The financial institution (of paragraph 3.1.) where Client money will be held may be within or outside Cyprus or the EEA. It is understood that the legal and regulatory regime applying to any such financial institution outside Cyprus or the EEA will be different from that of Cyprus. Hence, in the event of the insolvency or any other equivalent failure or proceeding of that person, the Client\'s money may be treated differently from the treatment which would apply if the money was held in a Segregated Account in Cyprus.
The Company may pass money received from the Client to a third party (e.g. an intermediate broker, a bank, a market, a settlement agent, a clearing house or OTC counterparty located outside Cyprus or the European Union) to hold or control in order to effect a Transaction through or with that person or to satisfy the Client\'s obligation to provide collateral (e.g. initial margin requirement) in respect of a Transaction. The Company has no responsibility for any acts or omissions of any third party to whom it will pass money received from the Client.
3.2. The legal and regulatory regime applying to any such third party person will be different from that of Cyprus and, in the event of the insolvency or any other equivalent failure of that person, the Client\'s money may be treated differently from the treatment, which would apply if the money was held in a Segregated Account in Cyprus. The Company will not be liable for the solvency, acts or omissions of any third party referred to in this clause.
3.3. The third party, to whom the Company will pass money, may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client\'s money, or the third party\'s money. In the event of the insolvency or any other analogous proceedings in relation to that third party, the Company may only have an unsecured claim against the third party on behalf of the Client, and the Client will be exposed to the risk that the money received by the Company from the third party is insufficient to satisfy the claims of the Client with claims in respect of the relevant account. The Company does not accept any liability or responsibility for any resulting losses. In general, accounts held with institutions, including omnibus account(s), face various risks, including the potential risk of being treated as one (1) account in case the financial institution in which the funds are held defaults. Under such circumstances any applicable deposit guarantee scheme may be applied without consideration of the Client as the ultimate beneficial owners of the Omnibus Account. In addition resolution measures may be taken in such a case, including the bail-in of Client funds.
3.4. The Company may deposit Client money with a depository, who may have a security interest, lien or right of set-off in relation to that money.
3.5. A Bank or Broker through whom the Company deals with could have interests contrary to the Client\'s Interests.

4.1. The Company\'s insolvency or default or the insolvency or default of any parties involved in Transactions undertaken by the Company on the Client\'s behalf (including without limitation brokers, execution venues and liquidity providers), may lead to positions being liquidated or closed out without the Client\'s consent. In the unlikely event of the Company\'s insolvency, segregated client funds cannot be used for reimbursement to the Company\'s creditors. If the Company is unable to satisfy repayment claims, eligible claimants have the right to compensation by the Investor Compensation Fund as stated below.
4.2 The Company as the issuer of a CFD may become temporarily or permanently insolvent, resulting in its inability to meet its obligations. The solvency of an issuer may change due to one or more of a range of factors including the financial prospects of the issuing company, the issuer\'s economic sector and/or the political and economic status of the countries where it and/or its business are located. The deterioration of the issuer\'s solvency will influence the price of the securities that it issues.

12. General Investment Risks

Currency Risk
In the case of investments in foreign currency, the return and performance of the investment are strongly influenced by the exchange rate of the foreign currency relative to the base currency. This means that exchange rate fluctuations may increase or decrease the return and value of such investments.

Transfer Risk
Transactions involving a foreign business partner (e.g. a foreign debtor), carry additional risks of political or exchange control measures in a given country may that complicate or prevent the realization of the investment. In addition, problems may occur in connection with the settlement of an order. In the case of foreign currency transactions, such measures may obstruct the free convertibility of the currency.

Country Risk
The country risk represents the credit risk of a given country. If the country concerned is exposed to a risk in political or economic terms, all counterparties residents in that country may be affected.

Liquidity Risk
Tradability (liquidity) refers to the possibility of selling a security or closing out a position at the market price at any given time. The opposite of a liquid market is a narrow market. The market in a particular security is said to be narrow if an average sell order (measured by the usual trading volume) causes perceptible price fluctuations and if the order cannot be settled at all or only at a substantially lower price.

Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the possibility of the counterparty\'s default, i.e. the inability of one party to meet its obligations such as dividend payments, interest payments, repayment of principal when due, or to meet such obligations in full. It is also known as repayment risk or issuer risk.

Interest Rate Risk
The risk that losses will be incurred as a result of future movements in the market interest level is known as interest rate risk.

Exchange Risk
Implies the risk of adverse fluctuations in the value of the individual investments. In the case of transactions relating to a future obligation (foreign currency forwards, futures, selling options etc.)might be necessary to provide collateral security (margin) or to increase its amount, which means tying up liquidity.

Risk of Total Loss
This term refers to the risk, where an investment may become completely worthless. Buying Securities on Credit
The purchase of securities on credit implies increased level of risk. The credit that has been provided must be repaid no matter whether the investment has been profitable or not. Furthermore, the credit costs reduce the return.

12.1 Investment risks related to bonds / debentures / fixed-income securities

Bonds
(= debentures, fixed-income securities) are securities that obligate the issuer (= debtor) to pay to the holder (= creditor, buyer) interest on the capital invested and to repay the nominal amount according to the bond terms.

Return
The bond yield is composed of the interest paid on the capital and any difference between the purchase price and the price achievable upon sale/redemption of the bond. Consequently, the return can be determined in advance only if the bond is held until redemption. To provide an indication/comparison, an annual yield based on the assumption of bullet repayment is calculated in line with international standards. If the yield of a bond is significantly above the general yield level of bonds with comparable maturities, there must exist good reasons - one of them may be an increased credit risk. The price achievable upon sale of a bond prior to redemption (market price) is not known in advance. This means that the yield may be higher or lower than initially calculated. In addition, transaction charges must be taken into account when calculating the overall return.

Credit Risk
There always is the risk of the counterparty\'s default, e.g. in the case of the debtor\'s insolvency. The credit standingof the debtor must therefore be considered in an investment decision. Credit ratings (assessment of the creditworthiness of a debtor) issued by independent rating agencies provide some guidance in this respect. The highest creditworthiness is "AAA". The lower the rating (e.g. "B" or "C") is, the higher is the repayment risk, but also the higher will be the yield (risk premium).

Exchange Risk
If a bond is kept until maturity, the investor will receive the redemption price as stated in the bond terms. Please bear in mind the risk of a call, i.e. the issuer retires the bond before maturity (this is only possible if a relevant provision is specified in the bond terms). If a bond is sold prior to maturity, the investor will receive the current market price, which is regulated by supply and demand. For instance, the price of fixed-rate securities will fall if the interest rate on bonds with comparable maturities rises. Conversely, bonds will gain in value if the interest rate on bonds with comparable maturities falls. The market price of a bond may also be affected if the issuer\'s creditworthiness changes.

Liquidity Risk
The tradability of bonds depends on several factors, e.g. issuing volume, residual life, bond market rules and market conditions. Certain bonds may be difficult or impossible to sell and must be held until maturity.

BOND TRADING
Bonds are traded on a stock exchange or over-the-counter. Company may quote rates for buying and selling bonds upon request.

SOME SPECIAL BONDS
Supplementary capital bonds
These are junior securities issued by certain banks. Interest will be paid only if the bank has achieved a sufficient net income (before allocation to reserves) for the financial year, and principal will be repaid only after prorate deduction of the net losses suffered during the full term of the supplementary capital bonds.

Subordinated capital bonds
In the event of an issuer\'s liquidation or bankruptcy, payments are made to the holder of these bonds only after all other non-subordinated liabilities of the bond debtor had been satisfied. It is not possible to offset claims to redemption of subordinated bonds against the amounts owed to the bond debtor.

Cash-or-share bonds issues
These consist of three components, the risk of which is borne by the holder of these bonds: The investor buys bonds (bond component), the interest rate of which takes into account the option premium and is higher than the market interest rate of other bond issues with comparable maturities. However, the bonds will be redeemed either in cash or in shares, depending on the price performance of the underlying share (share component). Thus, the bondholder is the writer of a put option (option component), who sells the right to put shares to him to a third party and, thereby, accepts the risk of an adverse movement in the share. In return for accepting the risk, he will receive the option premium, which is determined mainly by the volatility of the share. Unless the bonds are held until maturity, there will be the additional risk of interest rate fluctuations. Changes in the interest rate level will thus affect the price of the bonds and, consequently, their net yield relative to the holding period. Please note that the information on the credit risk, interest rate risk, and exchange risk of the share is given in this brochure. Your personal adviser will be pleased to inform you about further special bond types such as bonds with warrants, convertible bonds, zero-coupon bonds etc.

12.2 Investment Risks Related to shares

Shares
Shares (stocks, equities) are securities evidencing an ownership interest held in an enterprise (public limited company). The most important rights of shareholders are the participation in the company\'s profits and the right to vote at the shareholders\' meetings.

Return
The yield on investments in shares is composed of dividend payments as well as price gains or losses and cannot be predicted with certainty. The dividend is the amount of a company\'s earnings distributed to shareholders. The amount of the dividend is decided by the shareholders\' meeting and is expressed either as an absolute amount per share or as a percentage of the nominal value of the share. The return achieved on the dividend in relation to the share price is called dividend yield. Usually, this is considerably lower than the dividend quoted as a percentage of the nominal value. The greater part of the return on investments in shares is usually achieved from their performance/price trend (see exchange risk).

Exchange Risk
Most stocks are traded on a public exchange. As a rule, prices are established on the basis of supply and demand daily. Investment in stocks may involve considerable losses. In general, the price of a stock depends on the business trend of the respective company as well as the general business environment and political conditions. Besides, irrational factors (investor sentiment, public opinion) may also influence the share price trend and thus the return. Statistics show that, in the past, investments in stocks provided higher overall returns in the medium and long term than investments in most other securities categories.

Credit Risk
Shareholders hold an ownership interest in a company. This means that their investments may be rendered worthless, especially if the company becomes insolvent.

Liquidity Risk
Tradability may be limited in the case of shares with a narrow market (especially stocks quoted on the so-called "third market").

STOCK TRADING
Stocks are traded on a public exchange and sometimes over-the-counter. In the case of stock exchange trading, the relevant stock exchange rules (trading lots, order types, contract settlement etc.) must be observed. Foreign shares traded on the stock market and thus quoted in euro are still subject to a currency risk, in addition to the exchange risk if their local stock exchanges are in countries which are not members of European Monetary Union. Please contact your personal adviser for further details.

12.3 Investment risks related to money market instruments

These include investments and borrowings evidenced by a certificate such as certificates of deposits, deposit funds, government bonds, global note facilities and commercial papers as well as all notes with a maturity of up to five years for the repayment of principal and fixed interest rates for up to about one year. Return and Risk Components
The return and risk components of money market instruments are largely equivalent to those of bonds/debentures/fixed-income securities. Differences exist mainly in the liquidity risk.

Liquidity Risk
Typically, there are no organised secondary markets for money market instruments. For this reason, there is no guarantee that the instruments can be sold at any time. The liquidity risk is diminished if the issuer guarantees the repayment of the invested capital at any given time and if the issuer\'s credit standing is satisfactory.

13. Advice and Recommendations

13.1. The Company will not advise the Client about the merits of a particular Transaction or give him any form of investment advice and the Client acknowledges that the Services do not include the provision of investment advice in the Underlying Markets.

13.2. The Company will not be under any duty to provide the Client with any legal, tax or other advice relating to any Transaction. The Client should seek independent expert advice if he is in any doubt as to whether he may incur any tax liabilities. The Client is hereby warned that tax laws are subject to change from time to time.

13.3. The Company may, from time to time and at its discretion, provide the Client (or in newsletters which it may post on its Website or provide to subscribers via its Website) with information, recommendations, news, market commentary or other information, but not as a service. Where it does so:
(a) the Company will not be responsible for such information
(b) the Company gives no representation, warranty or guarantee as to the accuracy, correctness or completeness of such information or as to the tax or legal consequences of any related Transaction;
(c) this information is provided solely to enable the Client to make his own investment decisions and does not amount to investment advice or unsolicited financial promotions to the Client;
(d) if the document contains a restriction on the person or category of persons for whom that document is intended or to whom it is distributed, the Client agrees that he will not pass it on to any such person or category of persons;
(f) the Client accepts that prior to despatch, the Company may have acted upon it itself to make use of the information on which it is based.

13.4. It is understood that market commentary, news, or other information provided or made available by the Company are subject to change and may be withdrawn at any time without notice.

14. No Guarantees of Profit

14.1. The Company provides no guarantees of profit nor of avoiding losses on investments. The customer has received no such guarantees from the Company or from any of its representatives. The Client is aware of the risks inherent in investments and is financially able to bear such risks and withstand any losses incurred.

15. Regulatory and Legal Risk

A change in laws and regulations may materially impact the state of Financial Instruments and investments in a sector or market. A change in laws or regulations made by a government or a regulatory body or a decision reached by a judicial body can increase business operational costs, reduce the investment attractiveness, change the competitive environment and as such affect the profit possibilities of an investment. This risk is unpredictable and may vary from market to market.
