NewEdge Wealth Leveraging Uncertainty to Provide Stability

Leveraging Uncertainty to Provide Stability

With uncertainty on the rise and market sentiment faltering, investors may be starting to second-guess their portfolio risk to avoid future haymakers that equity markets may throw. Portfolio strategies that provide investors with a degree of downside protection against equity loss and defined return outcomes can be a powerful tool to keep otherwise fearful investors aligned with (their financial) plan.

Risks Relating to Structured Notes

While every structured product is different, all structured products share certain common elements. Structured notes are linked to the performance of specific underlying assets, which can be negative, but are not equivalent to investing directly in those assets. The derivative component of structured products and the potential loss of the principal for many such products may make them unsuitable for investors seeking alternatives to debt securities. It is important to note that a structured note may not always reflect the actual performance of the underlying asset and may have different risks than traditional debt or equity securities. Each investment in structured notes should be carefully evaluated with respect to an individual investor’s financial objectives, suitability, tax considerations and other relevant factors. Structured products vary considerably in terms of complexity and risk and are not suitable for all investors.

Do to underwriting and issuance costs, structured notes are designed to be held to maturity to realize the full benefits of the terms of the note. Investors will not receive any periodic interest payments, dividend payments or other distributions prior to a successful call observation or the maturity date of the structured note.

Structured notes have limited liquidity and are not an exchange traded product. There may be no or a limited secondary market for these investments.

Payment is subject to the credit risk and the ability of the issuer to pay its obligations as they become due.

Structured notes are not bank deposits nor are they insured by the FDIC or any other federal or state government agency of the United States or any other jurisdiction.

Risks Relating to Structured Products

Investments in structured products are subject to several risks, including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. Structured products typically have a specified maturity date and payout profile determined by the performance of an underlying, or basket of underlying, market measures. Structured products are generally designed to provide some level or combination of principal protection, downside market risk mitigation, enhanced income or enhanced returns relative to the performance of the underlying market measure. As a senior unsecured debt obligation, the payout at maturity is dependent on the issuer’s ability to pay off its debts as they mature. While there is generally liquidity provided by the issuer of a structured product prior to maturity, there is no guarantee of a secondary market. In the case that there is a secondary market provided, the sale price may be significantly less than what would be the maturity value due to factors such as volatility, interest rates, credit quality and risk appetite. The value of an investment in a structured product will reflect the then-current market value of the structured product as calculated by the issuer and will be subject to all the risks associated with an investment in the underlying market measure along with the risks and factors described above. Investors in structured products will not own or have any claim to the underlying market measure directly and will, therefore, not benefit from general rights applicable to the holders of those assets, such as dividends and voting rights. Notes are not insured through any government agency or program and the return of principal and fulfillment of the terms negotiated by NewEdge on behalf of its clients is dependent on the financial condition of the third party issuing the note and the issuer’s ability to pay its obligations as they become due.

Structured notes purchased for you will not be listed on any securities exchange. There may be no secondary market for such structured notes, and neither the issuer nor the agent will be required to purchase notes in the secondary market. Some of these structured financial products are callable by the issuer only, therefore the issuer (not you) can choose to call in the structured notes and redeem them before maturity. In addition, the maximum potential payment on structured notes will typically be limited to the redemption amount applicable for a payment date, regardless of the appreciation in the underlying index associated with the note. Since the level of the underlying index at various times during term of the structured notes held by you could be higher than on the valuation dates and at maturity, you may receive a lower payment if redeemed early or at maturity than if a client would have invested directly in the underlying index.

While the payment at maturity of any structured notes would be based on the full principal amount of any note sold by the issuer, the original issue price of any structured notes purchased for you includes an agent’s commission and the cost of hedging the issuer’s obligations under the note. As a result, the price, if any, at which an issuer will be willing to purchase structured notes from clients in a secondary market transaction, if at all, will likely be lower than the original issue price and any sale before the maturity date could result in a substantial loss. Structured notes will be designed to be short-term trading instruments so you should be willing to hold any notes to maturity.
