Capital at risk: There is no assurance that your investment in any product will be partially or fully repaid and you may lose part or all of your investment (if any). This is a capital at risk product.
Market Risk: The market value of any financial products purchased may significantly change as a result of political, economic, currency, market news, corporate developments and other events, which may in certain cases lead to capital loss, loss of the entire amount invested and in a worst case scenario, to unlimited losses.
Data, prices, values provided or reproduced involves assumptions, estimates and approximation: The data, prices, values (each, an “Indication”) provided or reproduced in this document are based on data and model which inherently involves assumptions, estimates and approximation.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO PHYSICALLY SETTLING PRODUCTS
Physical delivery risk: For products settled by physical delivery, the risk of delivery corresponds to a market participant’s inability to comply with its obligations as a seller under sales agreements (e.g. the delivery of a relevant underlying under the forward contract, etc.). This participant will then have to unwind its position which will trigger an increase in the price of the relevant transaction. Such increase will be greater if the position is significant and the time of delivery is approaching. This may result in a loss of profit. In the event of physical delivery under a transaction you should ensure you have made appropriate arrangements to settle such delivery, which may include but is not limited to, obtaining and appointing appropriate licences, agents or custodians.
Risk of price fluctuation: The price of any underlying asset or security delivered could move substantially on news and developments and this could pose significant event risks to you.
Risk of significant losses in liquidating underlying investment: You may suffer significant losses in liquidating the underlying investments, especially if such investments do not have an active secondary market and their prices have large bid/offer spreads.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: EUROPE
The contents of this document are given for purely indicative purposes and have no contractual value.
Prior to investing in a product having the index described herein (the “Index”) as its underlying, investors should seek independent financial, tax, accounting and legal advice.
This document does not constitute an offer, or an invitation to make an offer, from Societe Generale to purchase or sell the Index, which cannot be invested in directly. The purpose of this document is simply to describe the principles and main financial characteristics of the Index.
Risk of price movement: The level of the Index may be subject to significant price movement due to, inter alia, the evolution of the price of the underlying instrument(s) and of the interest rates.
General selling restrictions: It is each investor’s responsibility to ascertain that it is authorised to subscribe, or invest into, any product having the Index as underlying.
Warning regarding the Index: The Index is the sole and exclusive property of Societe Generale. Societe Generale does not guarantee the accuracy and/or the completeness of the composition, calculation, dissemination and adjustment of the Index, nor of the data included therein. Subject to any applicable law, Societe Generale shall have no liability for any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays relating to the Index.

Conflict of interest management: The roles of the different teams involved within Societe Generale in the design, maintenance and replication of the Index have been strictly defined. Where Societe Generale holds a product having the Index as its underlying and other positions exposing it to the Index for its own account, the replication of the Index is made in the same manner by a single team within Societe Generale, be it for the purpose of hedging the product held by external investors or for the purpose of the positions held by Societe Generale acting for its own account. Societe Generale may take positions in the market of the financial instruments or of other assets involved in the composition of the Index, including as liquidity provider.
