What are structured products?
Structured products1 are investment vehicles based on or derived from a single security, a basket of securities, an index, a commodity, a debt issuance and/or a foreign currency. Structured products have a fixed maturity date and are designed to offer specific risk-return tradeoffs, with pre-set formulas for both the potential risk and potential return. However, these calculations are often complex.
Some structured products offer protection of the principal – when held to maturity, subject to issuer credit risk, thus offering a lower risk than investing in the underlying asset directly. Others do not guarantee principal, but may provide a partial buffer against loss or offer the potential for enhanced returns.

Registered Structured Notes from Royal Heritage Commercial Bank
Royal Heritage Commercial Bank offers Registered Structured Notes6 ("Notes"), which may be an alternative to traditional investing.

3 Market-Linked CDs are linked to the performance of specific underlying assets and are not equivalent to investing directly in that asset. It is important to note that Market-Linked CDs may have features such as a maximum return cap or averaging, which could result in the performance of the CD differing from a direct investment in the underlying index or reference asset. Furthermore, the return on a Market-Linked CD, if any, often may not be paid until at maturity.
4 FDIC Insurance. A Market-Linked CD is FDIC insured, currently up to $250,000 per depositor. Any funds deposited with the issuing bank (including other CDs issued by such bank) in excess of these limits will not be eligible for FDIC insurance, so you should consider and inform your Financial Advisor, if you have other deposits at the issuing bank. For more detailed information regarding FDIC insurance coverage, you may contact the FDIC Call Center at (877) 275-3342 or refer to the FDIC public website at www.fdic.gov, where you can obtain a copy of the FDIC's brochure, "Your Insured Deposits, FDIC's Guide to Deposit Insurance Coverage".
5 Foreign securities carry special risks, such as exposure to currency fluctuations, less developed or less efficient trading markets, political instability, a lack of company information, differing auditing and legal standards, volatility and, potentially, less liquidity. International investing including emerging markets involves a greater degree of risk and increased volatility that is heightened when investing in emerging markets. Foreign securities can be subject to greater risks than Global investments, including currency fluctuations, less liquid trading markets, greater price volatility, political and economic instability, less publicly available information, and changes in tax or currency laws or monetary policy. Economies in Emerging Markets generally are heavily dependent upon international trade and, accordingly, have been and may continue to be affected adversely by trade barriers, exchange controls, managed adjustments in relative currency values and other protectionist measures imposed or negotiated by the countries with which they trade. These economies also have been and may continue to be affected adversely by economic conditions in the countries in which they trade.
6 Registered Notes may be suitable for investors who are willing to forego dividends or other distributions paid to holders of stocks comprising the relevant Reference Asset, or the Reference Asset itself, as applicable, do not seek current income from their investment, do not seek an investment for which there is an active secondary market, are willing to hold the securities to maturity and are comfortable with the creditworthiness of Royal Heritage Commercial Bank, as issuer of the securities.
