YOUR ACCESS TO THIS SECTION OF THE WEBSITE

In order to access information about Investment Products, you have selected Spain as your country of residence.

By selecting Spain as your country of residence, and clicking “I Accept” below, you represent, warrant and undertake to us that you are resident in Spain and are neither a U.S. resident nor a U.S. Person. Failure to provide us with accurate information will be treated as a material breach of these Terms. Not all Investment Products in relation to which information is available on this section of the Website are available in all geographical locations and so this section of the Website is not intended to be accessed by users of the Website that are not resident in Spain. You must not attempt to gain access to areas of the Website other than this section of the Website. If your country of residency changes, you must access the section of the Website that relates to your new country of residency. Please note that this may result in you not being able to access (i) information in relation to the same Investment Products as before, or (ii) any information at all (if a restricted jurisdiction).

NO ADVICE

The information on this section of the Website is provided for information only and the fact that CGML has made it available does not constitute investment advice or a recommendation to buy, sell or otherwise transact in any particular Investment Product. The Investment Products featured on this section of the Website may not be suitable for you. In preparing the information on this section of the Website, CGML has not taken account of your particular investment objectives, financial situation or investment needs. Nothing on this section of the Website shall, or is intended to, constitute financial, legal, accounting or tax advice and neither CGML, nor any of its affiliates, will, and do not purport to, provide you with investment advice as a result of your use of this section of the Website. By accessing this section of the Website, no contract is created under which CGML or any of its affiliates agrees to provide you with any information or investment advice.

We strongly recommend that you seek professional investment advice before making any investment decision.

PRICES / HISTORIC PERFORMANCE

All prices or values provided on this section of the Website are indicative only. Such prices or values may not reflect actual prices or values that would be available in the market at the time provided or at the time you may decide to purchase or sell an interest in a particular Investment Product. CGML accepts no responsibility for updating the price information available on this section of the Website. Information on historic performance of Investment Products and/or underlying investments is no indication of future performance. No representation is made that any Investment Product will, or is likely to, achieve results similar to those shown.

SELLING RESTRICTIONS

The distribution of the information contained on this section of the Website may be restricted by law. This section of the Website, and the information on it, are not addressed to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such information available. The information on this section of the Website is only made available to investors in Spain and the information on this section of the Website is not aimed or directed at, or made available to, persons outside Spain. The Investment Products are not available and prospectuses and other offering materials in respect of them will not be distributed to any person resident in any country where such distribution would be contrary to local law or regulation.

INVESTMENT PRODUCTS

You are only able to access information about Investment Products that have been registered or otherwise approved for public distribution in Spain. This means that a regulatory body has satisfied itself that the relevant Investment Product meets certain criteria and that interests therein may be offered to the public. However, the fact of an Investment Product’s registration or other approval does not mean that any regulator has determined that such product is suitable for all investors. You should therefore consider the terms of investment in any Investment Product carefully, and seek professional investment advice, before making any decision to invest in a registered Investment Product. You acknowledge that the mere fact of selecting Spain as your country of residence does not mean that any or all Investment Products in relation to which information is made available, have been deemed suitable for you.

OFFERING DOCUMENTS

The terms of investment in any Investment Product are governed by the relevant offering documents. In the event of any inconsistency between the information on this section of the Website regarding a particular Investment Product and the terms of the relevant offering documents, the terms in the offering documents shall prevail. The offering documents relating to each Investment Product will contain risk warnings which are specific to that Investment Product. The relevant offering documents (e.g. prospectus and key investor information document(s), “KIID”) for each Investment Product have been filed with the applicable competent authorities when required and copies of such documents are available on this section of the Website. By clicking “I Accept” below, you are confirming your consent to receive KIIDs through this section of the Website. An investment in any Investment Product must only be made having carefully read the terms and conditions, the relevant prospectus, KIID or other offering documents and any additional or supplementary materials applicable to such Investment Product. It is your responsibility to use such prospectus, KIID or offering document and, by making an application to invest in an Investment Product, you will represent that you have read such prospectus, KIID or offering document and will agree to be bound by its contents. To the extent that any information on this section of the Website, including any offering materials, relates to a third party which is not affiliated with CGML, this information has been provided by that third party and is the sole responsibility of such third party. As such, CGML accepts no liability for such information.

INVESTING IN INVESTMENT PRODUCTS 

Persons interested in acquiring any interest in an Investment Product referred to on this section of the Website should inform themselves as to (i) the legal requirements within the countries of their nationality, residence, ordinary residence or domicile; (ii) any foreign exchange control requirement which they might encounter; and (iii) the income tax and other tax consequences which might be relevant to the acquisition, holding or disposal of such investment. You must make your own independent assessment as to your eligibility to invest in any Investment Product referred to on this section of the Website under the laws of your country of nationality, residence, ordinary residence or domicile. Your eligibility to invest in any Investment Product, or to use any service, mentioned on this section of the Website may be subject to the discretion of the provider of such Investment Product, or any other person as may be appointed to consider the eligibility of investors to invest from time to time. We strongly recommend that you seek professional investment advice before making any investment decision. 

RISK WARNINGS

Any investment involves risk. You should not enter into any transactions unless you have fully understood all such risks and have independently determined that such transactions are appropriate for you. In this respect please note that:

  • any investment in Investment Products involves substantial risks including, but not limited to, principal risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, political risk, liquidity risk, market risk, counterparty failure risk and credit risk;
  • the financial markets fluctuate and thus are subject to price variations, the price and value of interests in the Investment Products can go down as well as up (specially in an illiquid market). You may not get back the original amount invested and may lose all of your original investment;
  • past performance is not a guide to future performance. To the extent that this section of the Website contains any indications as to future performance, such forecasts are not a reliable indicator of future performance;
  • the value of investments in Investment Products may be affected, directly or indirectly, by the price of underlying investments and changes in any relevant foreign exchange rates;
  • tax assumptions may change if the law changes, and the value of tax relief (if any) will depend upon your individual circumstances. You should consult your own tax advisers in order to understand any applicable tax consequences;
  • one or more independent credit rating agencies may assign credit ratings to the Investment Products. The ratings may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to structure, market and other factors that may affect the value of the Investment Products. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold products and may be revised or withdrawn by the rating agency at any time.

 The above list of risk factors is not complete and you must refer to the relevant prospectus, KIID and/or other offering documents with respect to individual Investment Products. We strongly recommend that you seek professional investment advice before making any investment decision.
