INTRODUCTION
This Risk Warning Statement (herein the "Notice") is provided to the Company's Clients and any Prospective Client who is willing to enter into an agreement with the Company for opening a trading account with the Company (herein the "You", "Client" or "Customer"), under the provisions of the Law as amended from time to time.
It is noted that this Notice cannot and do not disclose or explain all of the risks and other significant aspects involved in dealing in Derivative Financial Instruments offered by the Company for. The notice was designed to explain in general terms the nature of the risks involved when dealing in Financial Instruments on a fair and non-misleading basis, according to the Law.

Foreign Exchange and any other Over-the-Counter ("OTC") derivative products' trading is highly speculative and is only suitable for Customers who understand and are willing to assume the economic, legal and other risks involved, and are financially able to assume losses up to or in excess of investment. The client should first and foremost be aware of the potential losses related to this activity.
The client hereby acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
PRODUCTS
While some OTC markets are highly liquid, transactions in OTC derivatives may involve greater risk than investing in on-exchange derivatives because there is no exchange market on which to close out an open position. It may not be possible to liquidate an existing position, to assess the value of the position arising from an OTC derivative transaction or to assess the exposure to risk. Bid and offer prices need not be quoted, and, even where they are, they will be established by dealers in these instruments. Consequently, it may be difficult to establish what a fair price is.
LEVERAGE
OTC derivative products involve a high level of leverage. Whilst the use of leverage can work in your favor, it can also work against you. Even a slight fluctuation in the market could lead to a proportionately much larger movement in the value of your investment, and your potential losses may be far greater than the money you deposit into your trading account.
Leverage Can Work For You
Leverage Can Work Against You
MARGIN FX CONTRACTS
The price of a Margin FX Contract is based on the underlying instrument, which is the price of one currency relative to another. Please note that at no stage will you take any physical delivery of currency (being the underlying instrument) when trading Margin FX Contracts.
Margin FX Contracts can be differentiated from other foreign exchange products in that they allow the investor an opportunity to trade foreign exchange on a margined basis as opposed to paying for the full value of the currency.
CFDs
A CFD is a leveraged financial instrument that fluctuates in value based on the price of the underlying instrument – which could be the price of gold, a share index, a currency or of a particular commodity. A CFD does not provide ownership or any rights to the underlying instrument and does not entitle you to the delivery of the underlying instrument at any stage.
A CFD is an agreement between you and us to exchange the difference in value of an underlying instrument from when a position is opened to when it is closed. If the value of the CFD has moved in your favor, you will be paid an amount into your account. Should the value of the CFD move against your position, an amount will be deducted from your account. The amount of profit or loss you make will be the difference between the price when the CFD is opened and the price when it is closed, adjusted to reflect notional dividends and interest payments, where applicable.
VOLATALITY
Movements in the price of underlying markets can be volatile and unpredictable and are outside of our control. This will have a direct impact on your profits and losses. Understanding the volatility of an underlying market will help you to manage the risks in relation to your trades.
Market Volatility Can Impact Your Trades
Prices can change rapidly due to economic, political or market conditions

LACK OF TRANSPARENT QUOTATION
Prices quoted by the Company are set by us in its absolute discretion. The Client may only offer to enter into a Transaction at the price currently quoted by BAZ Capital Markets Ltd. A price may change or cease to be valid at any time after it has been quoted and before the Client's offer to enter into a Transaction is accepted. As trading takes place "Over the Counter", there is no adequate standard of comparison to assess the adequacy of prices quoted by the Company. Furthermore, a position acquired through us can only be closed at Company and hence, can only be closed at the prices quoted by the Company. Due to the absence of a standard of comparison, the assessment of the adequacy of prices quoted by us would only be possible in practice by an effort, which may not be realistically available to a retail customer.
LIQUIDITY RISK
