RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT


jknobel.com


J. Knobel Investor Services Limited – Tied Agent of Mega Equity Securities & Financial Services Public Ltd.


Last Updated: 24 November 2025


IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY


Investing in financial instruments involves significant risk and may result in the total loss of your invested capital.


The value of investments can go down as well as up, and you may get back less than you originally invested – or nothing at all.


This Risk Disclosure Statement is provided by J. Knobel Investor Services Limited (Tied Agent Registration No. 32) acting exclusively under the full responsibility of Mega Equity Securities & Financial Services Public Ltd (CySEC Licence 011/03).


General Risks of Investing


  • Capital at Risk – You can lose all of the money you invest.


  • No Guarantee of Profit – Past performance is not indicative of future results and should never be relied upon when making investment decisions.


  • Market Risk – Prices of equities, bonds, ETFs, and derivatives can fall rapidly due to economic events, company performance, interest rate changes, geopolitical events, or market sentiment.


  • Liquidity Risk – Some instruments may be difficult or impossible to sell quickly at a fair price, especially in stressed market conditions.


  • Currency Risk – Investments denominated in foreign currencies will fluctuate with exchange-rate movements.


  • Leverage & Derivatives Risk – Derivatives (including futures and options) carry a high level of risk and are suitable only for clients with high risk tolerance and the ability to bear 100 % loss. Losses can exceed the initial amount invested.


  • Counterparty & Issuer Risk – You are exposed to the risk that an issuer or counterparty (including Mega Equity) defaults.


  • Interest Rate Risk – Bond prices generally fall when interest rates rise.


  • Concentration Risk – Investing in a small number of instruments or sectors increases the potential for large losses.
