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.
