The fees and other consideration that you pay us in connection with a financial instruments transaction agreement are determined in consultation with you, taking into account the specific product and the form of the agreement. For this reason, we are unable to state the amount of such fees, or the method by which they are calculated, in advance.
The securities we handle carry investment risk. Their value may decline, and a loss may arise, as a result of various factors — including fluctuations in interest rates, market prices, and other indicators; movements in the price of underlying assets; investment performance; and changes in tax or legal systems.
We provide no guarantee of either principal or yield. The risk that the value of the securities you invest in may fall below your original principal is borne by you.
