CONSTANT PRODUCT INNOVATION Our dynamic engineering team is dedicated to coming up with creative, relevant and market-driven ideas. We constantly look to create new and innovative Structured Products by taking into account client’s existing portfolios, constraints, objectives, market views and conditions. We constantly think outside the box. We pursue product differenciation. |
LIQUIDITY We are one of the few firms able to provide a secondary market for almost all of our Structured Products in some cases as frequently as daily with a bid-offer spread. This secondary market service is subject to certain terms and conditions and is not guaranteed. Our ability to manage a large volume of positions and to hedge these positions daily in addition to our powerful IT capabilities and on-going investments in new IT developments make our secondary market service possible. Liquidity on secondary markets enables the early redemption based on the product valuation at the time of exit: if a secondary market is available for your specific product, you may be able to sell all or part of your investment in such secondary market before maturity on the basis of the product valuation at the exit time. |
POST-SALE CLIENT SUPPORT TEAM We offer our clients a dedicated team that is fully available as their point of contact, allowing for streamlined and simple communication: Product valuations / Reports Trade confirmations and pre-confirmations All information used to monitor the product during its lifetime, including information on settlement issues, pending payments and any on-going events related to the products. |
COMPETITIVE POSITIONS Société Générale manages one of the biggest trading “books” of Structured Products in the industry: Allowing us to take multiple opposite positions to hedge the large volume of positions managed. Allowing you the opportunity to access competitive entries in our books. |
FULL TRANSPARENCY We have clear product documentation that explains the payoff mechanism of the Structured Product and presents both upside and downside scenarios. Structured Products have a payoff formula which is set and disclosed to investors before the Structured Products are issued: Pre-set and disclosed maximum and minimum returns Defined Maturity and Underlyings Defined level of Capital Protection (ranging from 100% to 0%) Frequency of valuation |

The capital protection feature, if any, of our Structured Products is subject to our creditworthiness and available only if investors hold their investment until maturity. If investors sell any Structured Product prior to maturity, the sale price will depend on a number of factors, and may be less, and possibly substantially less, than the amount investors had originally invested.
Our ability to pay our obligations under any products is dependent upon a number of factors, including our creditworthiness, financial condition and results of operations. No assurance can be given, and none is intended to be given, that investors will receive any amount at maturity.
