      Structured Deposits

      With a variety of tenors, Structured Deposits are attractive to investors with a low to medium risk appetite

      What is a Structured Deposit?

      It is a combination of a deposit and an investment product, where the return is dependent on the performance of some underlying financial instrument. Typical financial instruments linked to such deposits include market indices, equities, interest rates, fixed-income instruments, foreign exchange or a combination of these.

      Benefits of Structured Deposits

      Potential for higher returns

      Potentially higher returns compared to traditional fixed deposit

      No front-end fees or annual management fees

      Diversification into underlying financial instruments

      Portfolio diversification into respective underlying assets

      Low to medium risk appetite

      At maturity, the Structured Deposits will provide a return of 100% of the initial investment amount to the investor (subject to issuer’s credit risk and financial risks*)

      Differences between Fixed Deposits and Structured Deposits

      FIXED DEPOSITS
      STRUCTURED DEPOSITS
      Minimum investment amount is less, can be as small as $1,000. Minimum investment amount can start from $20,000
      Returns are usually lower. Funds are usually placed in money markets for short period of time. Returns depend on performance of underlying financial instrument.
      Typically a shorter tenor. Varies from 1 month to 3 years. Varies from 2 weeks to 10 years.
      Lower risk as banks are obligated to pay principal in full at maturity. Riskier than traditional deposits because returns depend on performance of the underlying.
      Covered by deposit insurance scheme. Not covered by deposit insurance scheme.

      A structured deposit is an investment product, where the returns is dependent on the performance of underlying financial instruments such as market indices, interest rates, foreign exchange, or a combination of these.

      Investors who:

      – Have a medium to long investment time period

      • Portfolio diversification into respective underlying assets
      • Potentially higher returns compared to traditional fixed deposit
      • At maturity, the Structured Deposits will provide a return of 100% of the initial investment amount to the investor
        (subject to issuer’s credit risk and financial risks*)
      • The tenor should suit your investment time horizon
      • Evaluate best and worst possible outcomes and compare against the return from a term deposit of equivalent tenor and with a bank of the same credit rating
      • Understand the underlying mechanics of the investments
      • The frequency of the coupon payout should suit your cash flow requirements
      • There is a penalty imposed when unwinding Structured Deposits

      Credit Risk

      In the event of the insolvency or failure in any other way of issuer/ counterparty/underlying entity(ies), the investor may not receive the initial

      investment amount.

      Liquidity Risk

      The investment product or its underlying asset may become illiquid, which could prevent an investor from promptly exiting unfavourable positions. Hence the investor could, therefore, potentially incur losses.

      Market Risk

      The value of the investment product maybe subject to fluctuations due to changing political, legal, economic conditions and other reasons.

      Early Termination Risk

      There is a penalty imposed when unwinding the Structured Deposits. The investor will incur a cost that may result in the loss of all or part of the initial investment amount.
