Explore the Types of Structured Notes

Principal Protection Notes

  • Return of Principal. Offer partial or full return of your initial investment.
  • Participation in Performance. Enable you to capitalize on the price fluctuations of underlying securities, potentially amplifying returns.
  • Low Risk. Generally regarded as lower risk compared to other structured note types, due to principal protection.
  • Predictable Outcomes. Ensure a more stable return profile, facilitating better financial planning.

Yield Enhancement Notes

  • Periodic Coupons. Provide regular, predefined coupon payments, which can offer attractive income opportunities.
  • Conditional Payments. Coupons are paid if the price of the underlying securities remains within specified price limits, providing income when market conditions remain stable.
  • Higher Coupon Rates. Often offer higher coupon rates compared to traditional fixed-income investments, compensating for the conditional nature of the payments.
  • Market Stability. Best suited for investors who believe the underlying securities will stay within the predetermined price range.

Participation Notes

  • Performance Tracking. Track the price performance of the underlying securities, allowing you to capitalize on their value changes.
  • Enhanced Yields. May offer higher returns if the price of the underlying securities stays within predetermined limits, potentially increasing your overall yield.
  • Upside Exposure. Allow investors to benefit from positive price movements of the underlying securities, enhancing overall returns.
  • Conditional Returns. Provide returns based on the underlying securities meeting certain performance criteria, aligning rewards with market performance.

Leveraged Notes

  • Amplified Gains. Use leverage to potentially boost returns, magnifying gains compared to a direct investment in the underlying securities.
  • Higher Risk. Carry a greater risk of loss due to the amplified nature of returns, which can lead to significant fluctuations in value.
  • Potential for High Return Volatility. The use of leverage can increase volatility in investment returns, potentially leading to both higher gains and higher losses.
  • Short-Term Focus. Often suited for investors with a higher risk tolerance and a short-term investment horizon, as leverage can magnify short-term market movements.

Risk Disclosures


  • Credit Risk. Risk that the issuer is unable to meet its payment obligations on the stipulated dates, where the investors may lose some, or all, of their principal amount. Therefore, it is crucial to consider the creditworthiness of the issuer before investing in structured notes.
  • Liquidity Risk. The structured notes are not transferrable and there is no guarantee of a secondary market for trading or selling the structured notes. Accordingly, the ability of the investors to liquidate the position depends upon the willingness and ability of the issuer to redeem the structured notes. Based on the market conditions, the valuation of the structured note may be quoted at a significant discount to its face value, resulting a loss to the investors. Generally, structured notes should be invested with the intention to be held to maturity.
  • Market Risk. Factors such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, tax regimes, laws, regulations and market sentiments could impact the price performance of the underlying securities and the structured note investment value.
  • Reinvestment Risk. Risk of not able to reinvest at similar rate of return if the structured notes are redeemed earlier than the scheduled maturity date.
  • Structured notes are not the same as direct investment in the underlying securities, investors are not entitled to any rights associated with the ownership on the underlying securities such as dividends and voting rights.

  • Structured notes involve high-risk investments. Investors must thoroughly assess all information, including product features, prevailing market conditions and associated risks before making any investment decisions. It is crucial for investors to independently evaluate their financial situation, risk tolerance, investment objectives and other pertinent financial factors. Prior to investing, investors should carefully review all information provided in the prospectus, factsheet and any other materials, including details on risk factors, rights and terms.
  • Investors should understand that financial market conditions and fluctuations in the prices of underlying securities can affect the value of structured notes, potentially impacting the redemption amount or return received by the investors. The total redemption value of structured notes is uncertain due to fluctuations in the prices of the underlying securities or other relevant factors on the valuation date or any other relevant date as specified in the terms and conditions.
  • Investors assume the risk of potential losses upon redeeming structured notes, as the redemption value may fall below the total face value or the principal amount invested.
