Risk Warning

Magnified losses

The nature of margin trading markets means that both profits and losses can be magnified and, unless you place a stop loss, you could incur very large losses if your position moves against you.

Not suited for long term investment

CFDs are not suited to the long term investor. If you hold a CFD open over a long period of time the associated costs increase, and it may be more beneficial to buy the underlying asset instead.

No rights

You have no rights as an investor, including no voting rights.

Only invest money you can afford to lose

Do not invest in CFDs with money you cannot afford to lose. An investment in CFDs carries a high degree of risk to the investor and, due to fluctuations in value, the investor may not get back the amount he has invested.

Not suitable as income

The inherent concept of CFDs means they are not suitable for an investor seeking an income from his investments as the income from such investments may fluctuate in value in money terms. For an investment in an OTC product, which is not a readily realizable investment, it may be difficult to sell or realize the investment and obtain reliable information about its value or the extent of the risks to which it is exposed.

Invest only if you fully understand the risks

The value of investments denominated in foreign currencies may diminish or increase due to changes in the rates of exchange. CFDs are therefore only suitable for those customers who fully understand the market risk and have previous trading experience. If unsure, it is advisable to seek independent advice.
