Risk disclosure

Because of possible fluctuations in value to which the invested capital may be subject, it is possible that the investor will not get back the capital they originally invested. If investments are effected in foreign currencies, these are also subject to exchange rate fluctuations.

In no event should you effect securities transactions without being precisely aware of the associated risks and having formed a picture of the extent to which the substantial risk of loss is financially bearable. In particular, we recommend that you do not effect any investments without professional advice.
