For information on the risks associated with securities investments, please refer to the respective service contracts with the associated appendices.

Client segmentation
The Financial Services Act divides clients into retail clients, professional clients, or institutional clients.
The level of regulatory client protection is lower for professional and institutional clients than for retail clients. In order for clients to benefit from a full range of services and a comprehensive set of financial instruments, Nahmani Grunder offers its services only and exclusively to professional and institutional clients.
High-net-worth retail clients can be classified as professional clients (“opting out”). Our client advisors will inform you about the necessary requirements and what FinSA provisions do not apply in this case.
Dormancy (Dormant assets)
The client shall ensure that contact and communication are consistent while personal information is kept up to date. In particular, the client should make sure that the asset manager is notified immediately about any changes of address and name and that a trusted third party is informed about the relationship with the asset manager (if possible, as authorised representative). If contact is interrupted for a prolonged period, the asset manager may pass on to the client the costs of researching the address, as well as the costs involved in the special handling and monitoring of dormant assets. Dormant business relationships with a zero or negative balance will be closed by the asset manager. Further information can be found in the brochure “Dormant Assets” from the Swiss Bankers Association.
