    Description of Issuer

    Bank of Communications Co., Ltd is one of the top 5 leading

    banks in China. It was founded in 1908 and was a major

    national bank and note-issuing bank in the early days.

    Following the State Council’s decision in 1986, the Issuer

    was reconstituted in 1987 and became the first joint-stock

    commercial bank in China with investment from the central

    government and State enterprises.

    With its foundation laid in Hong Kong, Bank of

    Communications Co., Ltd. Hong Kong Branch (“BOCOM

    HK”) has been serving the city since 1934. From 14 April

    1998, BOCOM HK has ceased to be a member of the Bank of

    China Group and operated its business independently. Apart

    from being monitored and supervised by the local regulatory

  • body, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, it is also under the

    close monitoring of the Head Office of Bank of

    Communications Co., Ltd. and the People’s Bank of China.

    Contact Information of Issuer Place of Incorporation: The People's Republic of China

    Registered Address: PRC Head Office

    No. 188, Yinchengzhong Road,

    Shanghai, P.R. China, 200120

    Selling Restrictions

    The CDs cannot be offered or sold and may not be offered or

    sold in the PRC or to residents of the PRC unless such offer

    or sale is made in compliance with all applicable laws and

    regulations of the PRC (and for those purposes, references to

    “the PRC” shall not include Hong Kong).

    * Actual payment dates are subject to the payment received from the relevant custodian which

    maybe beyond the stated date due to time zone difference and different lead time required by

    individual paying agent.

  • Risk Factors

    There are investment risks involved in buying the CD. Before applying for any of the CD, you

    should consider whether the CD is suitable for you in light of your own financial circumstances

    and investment objectives. If you are in any doubt, get independent professional advice.

    The CD is mainly for medium to long term investment, not for short term speculation. You should be prepared to invest your funds in the CD for the full investment tenor; you could

    lose part or all of your investment if you choose to sell the CD prior to maturity.

    It is the issuer who pays interest and repays principal of the CD. If the issuer defaults, the holder of the CD may not be able to receive back the interest and principal. The holder of the

    CD bears the credit risk of the issuer and has no recourse to HSBC unless HSBC is the issuer

    itself.

    Indicative price of the CD are available and the CD’s price do fluctuate when market changes. Factors affecting market price of the CD include, and are not limited to,

    fluctuations in Interest Rates, Credit Spreads, and Liquidity Premiums. The fluctuation in

    yield generally has a greater effect on prices of longer tenor CDs. There is an inherent risk

    that losses may be incurred rather than profit made as a result of buying and selling the CD.

    If you wish to sell Bonds/CDs, HSBC may repurchase it based on the prevailing market price under normal market circumstances, but the selling price may differ from the original

    buying price due to changes in market conditions.

    There may be exchange rate risks if you choose to convert payments made on the CD to your home currency.

    The secondary market for the CD may not provide significant liquidity or may trade at prices based on the prevailing market conditions and may not be in line with the expectations of the

    CD holders.

    If the CD is early redeemed, you may not be able to enjoy the same rates of return when you re-invest the funds in other investments

    CD is NOT equivalent to a time deposit. It is NOT protected under the Hong Kong Deposit Protection Scheme. Do not invest in the CD unless you fully understand and are willing to

    assume the risks associated with it.

    Please note the following risks associated with RMB products : RMB currency risk

    - RMB is currently not freely convertible and subject to regulatory restrictions (which

    might be changed from time to time).

    - For personal customers who are Hong Kong residents, conversions conducted through

    RMB deposit accounts with banks in Hong Kong are subject to the limit of up to

    RMB20,000 per person per day. Personal customers who are Hong Kong residents should

    allow time for conversion of RMB from/to another currency of an amount exceeding the

    daily limit. Non-Hong Kong residents are not required to observe the corresponding

    limits and requirements regarding Renminbi conversions for Hong Kong residents.

  • Interest rate risk

    - The value of RMB denominated Certificates of Deposit is subject to interest rate

    fluctuations, which may adversely affect the return and performance of the RMB

    products

    Liquidity risk

    - The secondary market for the RMB denominated Certificates of Deposit may not provide

    significant liquidity or trade at prices based on the prevailing market conditions, which

    may cause Certificates of Deposit holders to suffer significant loss especially where their

    prices have large bid/offer spreads, and may not be in line with the expectations of the

    Certificates of Deposit holders.

  • Investor’s Commitment and Acknowledgements

    When you place your order for the CD, you are deemed to make a series of confirmations and

    acknowledgements, including that you:

    (i) have read and understood this Term Sheet, including the risks of investing in the CD as

    explained in the section “Risk Factors”;

    (ii) understand that you should refer to the Information Memorandum, which are available

    upon request, for further details on the terms of the CD and risks involved and understand

    that the Offering Circular/Information Memorandum is only available in English version

    (iii) confirm that you are prepared to invest your funds in the CD for the full investment tenor;

    you could also lose part or all of your investment if you choose to sell your CD prior to

    maturity. You should make sure you have sufficient liquid emergency funds to meet any

    unforeseen circumstances.

    (iv) understand that this document is not intended to provide and should not be relied upon for

    tax, legal or accounting advice, investment recommendations or credit worthiness or other

    evaluation of the Issuer; prospective investors should consult their tax, legal, accounting

    and/or other advisors.

  • 風險因素

    本存款證涉及投資風險。在投資於本存款證之前,投資者應就本身的財政狀況及投資目

    標,考慮是否適合投資於本存款證。如有任何疑問,應諮詢獨立專業顧問的意見。

    本存款證主要提供中長期的投資,並不是短線投機的工具。你應準備於整段投資期內

    將資金投資於本存款證上;若你選擇在到期日之前提早出售本存款證,可能會損失部

    份或全部的投資本金額。

    本存款證的利息和本金是由發行者去償還。如果發行者不履行契約,存款證持有人可

    能無法取回本存款證的利息和本金。存款證持有人須承擔發行者的信貸風險,且不能

    向滙豐追討任何賠償,除非滙豐本身為該存款證之發行者。

    滙豐提供本存款證的參考價格,其價格可能會及確會波動。影響本存款證價格的因素

    包括,但不限於,利率,信貸息差及流通性溢價的波動。而孳息率的上落對越長年期

    的存款證價格影響一般較大。買賣存款證帶有風險,投資者未必能夠賺取利潤,可能

    會招致損失。

    如你打算出售經滙豐代您購入的債券/存款證,滙豐可在正常市場下,按市價進行有

    關交易。但基於市場變動,賣出價與原定的買入價可能不同。

    倘若你選擇將存款證所支付的付款兌換為本國貨幣,可能須承受匯率波動的風險。

    發行人提供的二手市場或不能提供龐大的流通量或按對持有人有利之價格買賣,且可

    能與存款證持有人之預期不符。

    如本存款證被提早贖回,您轉而投資於其他投資項目,未必能取得相同回報。

    存款證並非定期存款,並不受香港存款保障計劃之保障。除非你完全理解並願意承擔

    其所涉及之風險,否則不應投資於存款證。

    請注意以下與人民幣產品有關之風險:

    人民幣貨幣風險

    - 目前人民幣不能自由兌換並受到監管限制(可不時更改)。

    - 香港居民之個人客戶透過香港銀行的人民幣存款戶口來兌換人民幣,每人每日最高

    上限為人民幣 20,000 元。 若香港居民之個人客戶打算兌換的金額超出此每日上限,

    必須分階段兌換。適用於香港居民人民幣兌換的限額與規定並不適用於非香港居

    民。

    利息風險

    - 人民幣計值存款證之價值存在利率波動風險,可能會對人民幣產品之回報及表現產

    生不利影響

  • 流動性風險

    - 人民幣計值存款證之二級市場可能無法提供重大流動性或按當前市場條件下價格買

    賣,從而可能導致存款證持有人遭受重大損失,特別是他們的價格存在大幅買賣價

    格差額,且可能與存款證持有人之預期不符。

  • 投資者責任及聲明 投資者向分銷商購買本存款證時,投資者將被視為作出一系列承諾及聲明,包括:

    (i) 已閱讀及理解本條款概要內,包括「風險因素」部分所說明的有關投資本存款證的風
