(c) The Bank reserves the right to suspend, modify or terminate the Scheme and has the final decision in all matters and disputes in relation to the Scheme.

(d) The English version of the Scheme is the governing version and shall prevail if there is any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version.

Risk DisclosureInvestment involves risks. The prices of investment products fluctuate, sometimes dramatically, and may become valueless. Before making any investment decision, customers are encouraged to consult their own independent financial advisors and read the relevant offering documents for further details including the risk factors in order to ensure that they fully understand the risks associated with the investment products.Securities TradingIt is as likely that losses will be incurred rather than profits made as a result of buying and selling securities.Mutual Fund InvestmentThe past performance of a mutual fund is not a guide to its future performance and yields are not guaranteed. Customers could lose some or all of the principal amount invested. Funds are not obligations of, or guaranteed by, the Bank or any of its affiliates. The Bank will normally be paid a commission or rebate by the fund manager.FX Margin TradingThe risk of loss in FX margin trading can be substantial. Customers may sustain losses

in excess of their initial margin funds. Placing contingent orders, such as “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” orders, will not necessarily limit losses to the intended amounts. Market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders. A customer may be called upon at short notice to deposit additional margin funds. If the required funds are not provided within the prescribed time, the customer’s position may be liquidated. The customer will remain liable for any resulting deficit in the customer’s account. Customers should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable in light of their own financial position and investment objectives. Currency exchange rates are affected by a wide range of factors, including national and international financial and economic conditions and political and natural events. The effect of normal market force may at times be countered by intervention by central banks and other bodies. At times, exchange rates, and price linked to such rates, may rise or fall rapidly.Gold TradingThe gold market is volatile and a loss may be incurred from trading gold. Gold does not bear interest. A customer’s purchase of gold for the account does not represent a purchase of physical gold or a deposit of money. Customers will not have any interest in any gold owned or held by the Bank, or be entitled to physical delivery of gold. Due to the fluctuating nature of the gold market, the gold price may rise or fall beyond customers’ expectations and the losses may substantially reduce customers’ capital invested and earnings (if any). Customers’ investments in Gold Trading are subject to the credit risk of the Bank. Before making any investment decisions, customers should assess their own willingness and ability to bear risks and seek advice from an independent financial advisor. Gold Trading (the “Scheme”) has been authorized by the Securities and Futures Commission (“SFC”). The SFC’s authorization of the Scheme is not an endorsement or recommendation of the Scheme nor does it guarantee the commercial merits of the Scheme or its performance. It does not mean the Scheme is suitable for all investors nor it is an endorsement of its suitability for any particular investor or class of investors.FX Linked DepositsThe return on a FX linked deposit is limited to the nominal interest payable, which will be dependent, to at least some extent, on movements in some specified currency exchange rate. Whilst the possible return may be higher than conventional time deposits, it is normally associated with higher risks. When the fluctuation of the currency exchange rates differs from what the customer expected, the customer may have to bear the consequential loss. If the FX linked deposit is approved by the Bank to be withdrawn before its maturity, the customer may also need to bear the costs involved. The relative losses and costs may reduce the return and the principal amount of the FX linked deposit which the customer may get back. Currency exchange rates are affected by a wide range of factors, including national and international financial and economic conditions and political and natural events. The effect of normal market force may at times be countered by intervention by central banks and other bodies. At times, exchange rates, and price linked to such rates, may rise or fall rapidly.Structured NotesInvestment in structured notes involves substantial risks including market risks, liquidity risks, risks relating to changes in market conditions, counterparty risks, and the risks that the issuer(s) will be unable to satisfy its obligations under the structured notes. Customers should recognize that their structured notes may mature worthless. While the maximum return on a structured note is usually limited to a predetermined amount of cash, an investor stands to potentially lose up to the entire investment amount if the underlying reference asset value moves substantially against the investor’s view.Equity Linked ProductsInvestment in equity-linked products involves substantial risks including market risks, liquidity risks, risks relating to changes in market conditions, counterparty risks, and the risks that the issuer(s) will be unable to satisfy its obligations under the equity linked products. Customers should recognize that their equity-linked products may mature worthless. While the maximum return on an equity-linked product is usually limited to a predetermined amount of cash, an investor stands to potentially lose up to the entire investment amount if the underlying stock price moves substantially against the investor’s view.InsuranceCustomers should read and understand the details of the insurance plan(s) (including but not limited to exact terms, conditions, coverage and exclusions) before any enrollment to assure the insurance products meet their personal needs. Specific details, terms and conditions applicable to insurance products are set out in respective insurance policies to be issued by the relevant insurance companies. For life insurance products, an insurance plan may comprise savings element. Part of the premium pays for the insurance and related costs. If a customer is not happy with the customer’s policy, the customer has a right to cancel it within the cooling off period and obtain a refund of any premiums paid. A written notice signed by the customer should be received by the insurer's Hong Kong Main Office within the cooling off period (that is, 21 days after the delivery of the policy or issue of a notice (informing the customer or the customer’s representative about the availability of the policy and expiry date of the cooling off period), whichever is the earlier). After the expiration of the cooling off period, if the customer cancels the policy before the end of the term, the projected total cash value may be less than the total premium the customer has paid.DisclaimerThis leaflet does not constitute advice to buy or sell, or an offer with respect to any investment or insurance products. Any offer, invitation or recommendation to any customers to enter into any investment transaction does not constitute any prediction of likely future movements in prices of any investment products. This leaflet was issued by China Construction Bank (Asia) Corporation Limited, and has not been reviewed by the Securities and Futures Commission or any other regulatory authorities in Hong Kong. PB
