Questions you may have
Please note we may require additional supporting information regarding the source of your funds and wealth, in order to meet the due diligence requirements of our local regulator. We will contact you if this is required.
This is a non-advised investment service for investors who want to make their own investment decisions. The content on this webpage does not, and is not intended to constitute advice. Therefore if you trade through this service HSBC Expat will not assess the suitability of the transactions for you. If you are in any doubt about the suitability of an investment transaction, we recommend you seek financial advice.
The value of your investments (and any income you receive from them) can fall, meaning you may not get back the full amount you invested. This could also happen as a result of changes in the rate of currency exchange, particularly where overseas securities are held or where investments are converted from one currency to another.
Investments should be considered as a medium to long-term commitment, meaning you should be prepared to hold them for at least five years.
Past performance is no guarantee of future performance. It is important that you understand the risks and charges associated with any investment. Before investing, please check the specific product literature on this website, including the fact sheets and Key Investor Information Documents in order to compare the risks and charges associated with your chosen funds.
