Selected Risk Factors | ||
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE BUyS MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — The BUyS do not guarantee any return of your initial investment in excess of $150 per $1,000 face amount. The return on the BUyS at maturity is linked to the performance of the Basket and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the Basket performance is positive or negative. THE RETURN ON YOUR BUyS IS LIMITED BY THE BASKET RETURN CAP — The Basket Return cannot exceed the Basket Return Cap of between 47.00% and 52.00% (to be determined on the Trade Date) and your payment at maturity is limited to a maximum payment of between $1,517.00 and $1,572.00 (to be determined on the Trade Date) for each $1,000.00 face amount of the BUyS you hold, regardless of any increase in the Basket beyond the Basket Return Cap. CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE BUyS PRIOR TO MATURITY - Certain built-in costs, such as our estimated cost of hedging, are likely to adversely affect the value of the BUyS prior to maturity. You should be willing and able to hold your BUyS to maturity. NO PERIODIC COUPON OR DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS You will not receive periodic coupon payments on the BUyS or have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions with respect to the component stocks of the Basket Components. OUR RESEARCH, OPINIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS COULD AFFECT THE LEVEL OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS OR THE MARKET VALUE OF THE BUyS - We and our affiliates and agents may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with investing in or holding the BUyS, which could affect the level of the Basket Components or the value of the BUyS. POTENTIAL CONFLICTS - Because we and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the BUyS, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the BUyS, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the BUyS. NON-U.S. SECURITIES MARKETS RISKS — The stocks included in the Basket Components replicated by the iShares® MSCI EAFE® Index Fund and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund are issued by foreign companies in foreign securities. These stocks may be more volatile than domestic stocks and may be subject to different political, market, economic, exchange rate, regulatory & other risks. THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION IS LIMITED – The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Share Adjustment Factor, which will initially be set at 1.0, for certain events affecting the shares of the Basket Components. The calculation agent is not required, however, to make such adjustments in response to all events that could affect the shares of the Basket Components. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the BUyS may be materially and adversely affected. See “Description of Securities – Anti-Dilution Adjustments for Funds” in the accompanying product supplement. LACK OF LIQUIDITY — There may be little or no secondary market for the BUyS. The BUyS will not be listed on any securities exchange. | CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS MAY OFFSET EACH OTHER - Price movements in the Basket Components may not correlate with each other. Therefore, in calculating the Basket Return, increases in the level of one or more of the Basket Components may be moderated, offset or more than offset by lesser increases or declines in the levels of the other Basket Components. COUNTERPARTY RISK — The payment of amounts owed to you under the BUyS is subject to the Issuer’s ability to pay. Consequently, you are subject to counterparty risk and are susceptible to risks relating to the creditworthiness of Deutsche Bank AG. MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE BUyS — In addition to the level of the Basket on any day, the value of the BUyS will be affected by a number of complex and interrelated economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other. CURRENCY MARKETS MAY BE HIGHLY VOLATILE — The BUyS are subject to currency exchange risk through their exposure to the performance of the iShares® MSCI EAFE® Index Fund and the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund, which measure the performance of foreign stocks and are denominated in U.S. dollars. Currency markets may be highly volatile, particularly in relation to emerging or developing nations’ currencies, and, in certain market conditions, also in relation to developed nations’ currencies. THE U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE BUyS ARE UNCLEAR - Significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the BUyS are uncertain, and no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will accept, or a court will uphold, the tax consequences described in the accompanying term sheet. See "Selected Risk Considerations" in the accompanying term sheet and "Risk Factors" in the accompanying product supplement for additional information.
