1. Introduction
ActivBrokers (referred to here as “the Company”) is a regulated forex and CFD broker, authorized by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) of Mauritius. This document serves as the Risk Acknowledgement and Disclosure, providing a general outline of the risks associated with trading financial instruments, including forex and CFDs.
This disclosure is intended to help clients understand the risks involved. However, it cannot cover all possible risks, as trading financial instruments carries inherent uncertainty. All clients should carefully consider these risks before opening an account with ActivBrokers or trading any financial instrument. If uncertain, clients should seek advice from independent financial advisors.
2. Risk Acknowledgement and Disclosure
ActivBrokers provides this risk disclosure in compliance with applicable regulatory standards. Clients should review this disclosure carefully. CFDs are complex, leveraged products that carry a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The Company will not provide personalized investment advice unless a client has signed up for advisory services. All trading decisions are at the client’s discretion and risk.
3. Risk Warning Notice for Forex and Derivative Products
Trading forex and derivatives, such as CFDs, can be highly volatile. Leveraged products involve substantial risk, and small market fluctuations may result in significant losses or gains. Clients should not trade in these products unless they fully understand the potential impact of these risks on their financial situation.
ActivBrokers emphasizes that trading these products may lead to the loss of all invested capital. Clients should trade only with funds they are prepared to lose and maintain adequate margin levels to prevent unnecessary liquidation.
4. Types of Risk
4.1 Third-Party Risk
Client funds may be held with third parties, such as banks or liquidity providers. These entities may be located outside Mauritius, and different regulatory regimes may apply. In the event of insolvency or default, client funds may be at risk, as they are held separately from ActivBrokers’ operating funds but may not be fully protected under foreign jurisdictions.
4.2 Market Risks
Market risk encompasses fluctuations in asset prices due to external factors. The forex and derivative markets can be highly volatile, with prices affected by economic indicators, political events, and changing supply and demand conditions. Leverage may amplify these risks, potentially leading to significant losses.
Interest Rate Risk
Changes in interest rates can impact asset prices and, subsequently, client positions. Clients should be aware that interest rate fluctuations can affect leveraged positions disproportionately.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Forex trading inherently involves currency risk. Exchange rates can shift unexpectedly due to macroeconomic factors, affecting the value of open positions.
Regulatory and Legal Risks
Changes in regulatory or legal frameworks may impact trading activities. Clients should consider the possible effects of new laws or regulations in their jurisdiction or market.
5. Additional Information
This policy is subject to periodic review and amendment by ActivBrokers. The Company reserves the right to modify or update this document as necessary to reflect regulatory or business changes. Clients are advised to regularly review these disclosures to stay informed about potential risks.
Should clients have any questions or require further information on risk-related matters, they are encouraged to contact ActivBrokers customer support.
