Structured product with participation in growth and Knock-out barrier

A structured product with participation in growth and a Knock-out barrier is a financial instrument that provides the opportunity to earn on the growth of the underlying asset, while protecting part of the capital.

1. Capital protection level — XX%: regardless of how the market behaves, you will get back at least XX% of the original investment.

2. Knock-out payment — XX: if the underlying asset grows above the Knock-out barrier level, your income will be equal to Knock-out payment * the face value of the investment.

3. Knock-out barrier — XX%: if the underlying asset reaches or exceeds this level (for example, 110% of the initial price of the asset), you will receive an income equal to Knock-out payment* the face value of the investment.

If the asset grows to a value below this level, then you will get back the face value of the investment multiplied by the capital protection level.


Examples of return on investment calculation:

Investment: 1000 dollars; Capital Protection: 60%; Knock-out Payment: 100%; Knock-out Barrier: 110%; Product Life: 12 months

  • Decrease in asset to 95%: you will receive 60% of the invested amount, i.e. 600 dollars.
  • Asset growth to 105%: you will receive 60% of the amount - 600 dollars.
  • Asset growth to 110%: you will earn 100% per annum.
  • Asset growth over 110%: you will also receive 100% per annum.
