HSBC believes that investors utilise various disciplines and investment horizons when making investment decisions, which depend

largely on individual circumstances such as the investor's existing holdings, risk tolerance and other considerations. HSBC’s currency

months, although HSBC reserves the right to extend this time horizon on a discretionary, trade-by-trade basis.
