Avtara – Risk Disclosure Statement
Important Notice
This Risk Disclosure Statement is designed to help you understand the potential risks involved in trading Foreign Exchange (Forex) and Contracts for Difference (CFDs). It aligns with international standards and reflects the applicable regulatory environment in Saint Lucia.
While it does not encompass every possible risk, this document outlines key risk considerations. Before trading with Avtara, please carefully review this statement, along with our Client Agreement and Privacy Policy. You should only engage in trading if you fully understand the associated risks. If you are uncertain, we strongly advise consulting an independent financial advisor.
Risk Warning
Trading leveraged products such as Forex and CFDs carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Before entering the market, consider your financial goals, level of experience, and risk tolerance. Only trade with capital you can afford to lose.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
While leverage can amplify profits, it also magnifies losses. Even small market movements can result in substantial losses. You are solely responsible for monitoring and managing your positions.
You may lose your entire initial investment and, in some cases, be required to deposit additional funds to maintain open positions. Failure to meet margin requirements can lead to the automatic closure of your positions, with any resulting losses remaining your responsibility.
Trading online involves additional risks, including internet connectivity issues, software errors, and hardware failures that may impact order execution.
Risk Acknowledgment
By trading with Avtara, you acknowledge and accept that:
Leveraged trading is speculative and inherently risky, suitable only for those who can bear potential financial losses.
Price fluctuations, even minor ones, can lead to significant financial outcomes due to low margin requirements.
You are fully responsible for any trading decisions and outcomes, and you are not relying on any guarantee of returns or protections from Avtara or its affiliates.
During periods of high volatility or irregular market conditions, execution delays and price slippage may occur.
Communication failures or delays can impact trade execution and decision-making.
You are responsible for securing your account and personal data from unauthorized access.
You are solely liable for meeting any tax, legal, or regulatory obligations. Avtara does not offer legal, tax, or compliance advice.
Weekend market gaps or after-hours events may cause prices to open at levels significantly different from the previous close, which may affect stop-loss orders and trading ability.
Unexpected events such as political instability, natural disasters, or other force majeure events may cause losses beyond your control.
Third-Party Risk
To facilitate trading and fulfill collateral obligations, Avtara may transfer client funds to third parties such as banks, liquidity providers, or clearing institutions. Although we conduct due diligence on these partners, Avtara is not liable for their performance or potential failures.
Client funds may be held in pooled or omnibus accounts. In the event of insolvency or legal proceedings involving a third party, your funds may not be individually identifiable, and recovery could be limited.
Additionally, some depositories may hold legal rights (e.g., liens or rights of set-off) over funds, which could impact your account balance.
