Complex Financial Instruments:
A) CFD´s
A1. CFD´s sobre Ações, ETF, Índices - consultar IFI
A2. CFD´s sobre Futuros - consultar IFIA Contract for Difference (CFD) is a complex financial product, according to the applicable law, which consists of a contract between two parties, qualified as buyer and seller, establishing that the seller will pay the buyer the difference between the closing price and the opening price if that difference is positive and the seller will receive the difference between the closing price and the opening price if the difference is negative. The underlying assets of the CFDs may be several, namely: Stocks, ETFs, Stock Indexes, Commodity Futures, Bond Futures Futures and Currency Futures. The aforementioned closing and opening prices are formulated by the Counterparty.
B) FOREX - See IFI Forex contracts are derivative contracts on currencies, which always work with a currency pair (cross currency) where the first is the base currency (the currency in which the amount to be bought or sold is defined) and the second is the currency (the currency in which the unit price of the base currency is defined). For example, in the EUR / USD cross, the euro is the base currency and the US dollar is the quotation currency. With a EUR / USD at 1.3600 (bid) and 1.3608 (ask), the investor will have to define the amount to buy or sell in the base currency (EUR) and then choose to buy (at 1.3608) or sell (at 1.3600), being that the purchase or sale prices represent the value in the quotation currency (the USD) per unit of the base currency (the EUR). A cross-currency position always implies the assumption of a long position in one currency (buy) against the short position in another (sale). The Forex contracts are traded in OTC - Over The Counter where the Counterparty (Saxo Bank A / S) is at the same time Market Maker, the prices being formulated by the Counterparty and disclosed in the trading platform Golden Trader.
C) FUTURES - See IFIFutures contracts are complex financial products, which consist of a contract for the purchase of an underlying asset under pre-defined (standardized) conditions, the settlement of which will occur on a future date (expiration date), at a price fixed in the present. The underlying assets of the Futures contracts may be several, namely: Stocks, ETFs, Stock Indices, Commodities, Bonds and Currencies.
