1HSBC Bank plc's HBSC InvestDirect International Account is not an offshore share dealing and investment service.

The value of investments (and any income received from them) can fall as well as rise and you may not get back what you invested. For some investments this can also happen as a result of exchange rate fluctuations as shares and funds may have an exposure to overseas markets. Most investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment, meaning you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.

You should carefully consider the special risks of investing in emerging market securities. These economics also have been, and may continue to be, affected adversely by economic conditions in the countries in which they trade.
