Risks in trading with financial instruments
About this brochure (Swiss Bankers Association 2019)
The new Financial Services Act (FIDLEG), which will come into force on 1 January 2020, regulates the protection of clients of financial services. It defines the requirements for the faithful, diligent and transparent provision of financial services and stipulates the offering and creation of financial instruments. This also includes the obligation of financial service providers to inform their clients in a simple and comprehensible manner about the general risks involved in dealing with financial instruments.
This brochure is intended to help you make informed investment decisions and enable you to compare the various financial instruments.
