| What is my investment objective and how do I expect the market to perform? |
 |
You expect the price of the underlying (such as a share or an index) to rise (fall for One-Touch Puts) towards a predefined target price. Besides you are aiming to realize an immediate profit if the underlying reaches your target.
In addition you prefer to participate in an upside move (downside move for One-Touch Puts) in the underlying with less capital invested than with a direct investment.

| Which product fits my needs? |
|
One-Touch Warrants are securities, which give the holder the right to receive an immediate payment if the underlying touches or exceeds (falls below for One-Touch Puts) the target price
between the issue date and the expiry date. The payment takes place 5 business days after the target price has been reached.
If this happens the claim for any further payments does no longer subsist.
One-Touch Warrants usually exhibit larger price movements than the underlying due to the "leverage effect".
Despite the high potential for gains you should bear in mind that this effect might influence the value of One-Touch Warrants
negatively when the price of the underlying does not perform as you expect.
|
| I am willing to accept the following risks |
|
As you are looking for an instrument that offers a substantial potential for gains you are willing to accept a higher degree of risk.
If the share or index underlying the One-Touch Warrants does not touch or exceed (fall below for One-Touch Puts) the target price between issue date and expiry date,
the One-Touch Warrants expire worthless. You must be prepared to accept the possibility of losing all the capital you have invested.
Investments in derivative products involve particular risks. Interested persons should contact their financial advisor
before investing in such products.
