2. Important general information
The data on this website is for your information only. It does not constitute investment advice, or advice on tax or legal matters. Nor does it contain any offer, recommendation or incitement to make investment decisions of any kind, e.g. to deal in financial instruments (including shares, bonds, investment funds, certificates) or to conclude any contracts for financial services (e.g. wealth management) or to conclude any other kind of contract (e.g. Family Office agreements).
In particular, this information should not be used as a substitute for suitable investment and product-related advice. Unless expressly stated otherwise, all pricing information is non-binding.
With respect to information on investment funds, please note that the sole basis for purchase is in each case the relevant sales prospectus, including the contract terms and conditions, the latest audited annual report, and the semi-annual report, if the latter is published later than the most recent annual report. These sales documents may be obtained free of charge from the relevant investment fund company or custodian bank, from paying agents, or from Flossbach von Storch; they can also be downloaded from this website.
The same applies to other investment products and the applicable sales documents.
Please bear in mind that the value of a financial investment can fall as well as rise. Investors must therefore be ready and able to accept losses on their invested capital. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
