Risk Disclosure

Currency conversion risk - the value of your RMB deposit will be subject to the risk of exchange rate fluctuation. If you choose to convert your RMB deposit to other currencies at an exchange rate that is less favorable than the exchange rate in which you made your original conversion to RMB, you may suffer loss in principal.
