Yield Enhancement

These provide investors with enhanced returns through a steady income stream, subject to the performance of the underlying assets.

Suitable for investors with moderate to high risk tolerances who seek to optimise exposure to the equity market with partial or conditional risk of capital loss.

Participation

These allow investors access to various markets or investment strategies for enhanced return potential, with varying degrees of principal protection.

Suitable for investors with moderate to high risk tolerances who seek to optimize exposure to the equity market or investment strategy with partial or conditional risk of capital loss. Often used by investors seeking access to new investment themes.

Leverage

These offer a leveraged or geared exposure to the underlying assets for investors looking for enhanced return potential.

Designed for investors with moderate to high risk tolerances who understand that by accepting greater risk, the potential for higher returns is enhanced, along with the risk of increased downside.
