Terms of use

The information, materials and data provided on the webpage are solely for general information purposes. They do not directly or indirectly constitute investment advice nor are they an invitation, offer, solicitation, inducement or recommendation to acquire or dispose of any investment or to engage in any other transaction in any company mentioned, including investing in shares or other securities, or any other products or services or otherwise dealing in these or entering into a contract with NNPA or any other company.

Such information, materials and data provided do not constitute investment advice and should not be relied upon in connection with any investment decision. They may contain forward-looking statements regarding the performance and financial condition of any company.

However, the past performance of any company referred to on the touchpoint or via such content cannot be relied upon as a guide to its future performance. Actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements because of various risks, uncertainties and other factors. For example, rates of exchange may cause the value of underlying investments or products to go up or down and tax arrangements may change. All stock market-based investment is exposed to a degree of risk and the price of shares, and the income derived from them can go down as well as up and investors may not recoup the amount originally invested. You should always seek appropriate professional advice in relation to such matters. Please see also the general disclaimer of liability under the section headed ‘General Provisions’ below.
