Although this document has been composed with the greatest care, nothing guarantees the accuracy nor the applicability of all the particular cases.
Although this document has been written in accordance with the laws currently in place, nothing guarantees our interpretation of present laws and/or that of new legal constraints that might be adopted, which could affect the information presented in this document. We advise that you consult a tax specialist before you carry out a transaction as far as an insurance contract is concerned, in order to confirm the legal and fiscal impacts.
The examples presented in this presentation are fictitious.
Insurance contracts provide important information about the products that are presented in this document. It is very important to read these contracts before accepting them.
Net asset value per share and returns made on investments fluctuate. It is important to remind oneself that past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.
You will find important information on the mutual funds described in their simplified prospectuses. To obtain a copy, please contact your representative. It is of primary importance to read them before investing.
The rates of return indicated constitute the total real annual compound rates of return taking into consideration the variations in share value and assume reinvestment of all dividends, but do not take into account sales, redemptions or optional charges payable to the shareholder, which may reduce the rates of returns.
An investment loan creates a leverage effect that magnifies the possibility of loss or gain.
The financial situation of the client must permit him to reimburse the interest on the loan and to reimburse a portion of the capital in the case of a margin call.
