Cautionary Warning: Investing in Macquarie Bank Warrants

Investors are being urged to carefully consider the risks associated with the Macquarie Bank Warrants before making a decision to invest. The warrants, a type of structured product involving derivatives, are listed on the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited. In order to make an informed investment decision, investors must read the base listing document, dated 28 May 2021, and any supplementary addenda. Key warning points include the lack of guarantee or collateral for the warrants, which means investors are relying solely on the creditworthiness of Macquarie Bank. If the bank were to become insolvent or default on its obligations, investors may not be able to recover all or part of the amount due.
