Client AgreementPrivacy Policy

This version of our Description of Services, Financial Instruments and Risks document will apply from 1 May, 2026.

Section I — Information about Boku Securities SIA and its investment services

1. Purpose

This Description of Services, Financial Instruments and Risks (hereinafter referred to as 'this Document') lays out information about Boku Securities SIA ('Neverless', 'we', 'us' or 'our') and the investment and ancillary services that may be offered to its clients (each a 'Client', 'you', 'your' or 'yourself').

The purpose of this Document is to provide information and warnings about the risks associated with financial instruments that you may buy or sell through us. Risk is understood as the failure to achieve a certain expected return on the capital invested and/or the loss of the capital invested, the basis for which may be various causes related to the financial instruments, the markets or the issuers of these instruments. These risks cannot always be foreseen in advance and therefore the statements in this Document cannot be considered as definitive. We have indicated the most common risks related to financial instruments transactions in general terms. However you should understand that we cannot disclose or explain all the inherent risks that you might be exposed to when engaging with our investment services now or in the future.

The purpose of this description is not to provide information on all the risks that may arise in the provision of services with financial instruments but rather to provide you with information to enable you to understand the nature of these risks when making investment decisions. We advise you to read the additional disclosures about the financial instrument or service carefully before making a decision in relation to a particular investment service or transaction.

The statements in this description do not constitute advice by us on potential investments and should not be understood as a recommendation by us. The descriptions contained herein should not substitute for the Client's own due diligence on the specific product.

This Document is designed for retail clients, as defined in the Financial Instrument Market Law of the Republic of Latvia that transposed the provisions of Directive 2014/65/EU ('FIML'). The FIML definition of retail clients refers to both natural persons - 'Individuals' - and legal entities - 'Businesses'. Currently, we offer our investment services to natural persons only.

Some of the key protection measures that retail clients benefit from are enhanced appropriateness controls, helping to ensure the client is investing in investment products in line with his or her investment objectives, risk tolerance, financial capabilities, experience and knowledge.

5. Assessment of appropriateness

We will not perform for you an assessment of appropriateness and suitability for execution only investment services on non-complex financial instruments, such as stocks. Consequently, you shall not receive any recommendations or additional notifications on the risks associated with the transaction you might wish to enter into. Your investment decisions are your sole responsibility.

Shall you want to invest in complex investment products you will be required to fill out an appropriateness questionnaire. We are required to determine whether your expertise, experience and knowledge is sufficient for you to undertake such investment decisions.

It is important that you provide us with up-to-date, accurate and complete information so that we are able to perform such appropriateness assessments, which enable us to act in your best interest when providing you with the relevant services.

We might provide you from time to time with factual information about the investment products for educational purposes. However this information is not and should not be interpreted as investment advice. It is your decision whether to submit any orders, and your investment decisions are your sole responsibility.

We reserve the right not to provide our clients with investment services or investment ancillary services at our own discretion without explaining the reason for providing or not providing such services.

6. Transactions in financial instruments

Transactions in financial instruments may take place in different forms – e.g., on an organised trading facility or multilateral trading facility, or over-the-counter.

You should, prior to entering into the respective investment services agreement, examine our Order Handling & Execution Policy, which discusses execution venues and other information essential for transactions in financial instruments.

7. Taxation

Your income from investment services and investment ancillary services may be subject to taxes as and when specified in the legislation of the Republic of Latvia and/or other country in which you reside for tax purposes.

You should note that we or a third party may have a duty under law to withhold taxes from the payment to you. We also may need to convert funds to be used for payment of taxes into the official currency of the country assessing the taxes at the current exchange rate provided by an FX service provider selected by Neverless at its sole discretion. Such withholding of taxes does not create a duty for us to reimburse you for the amount of taxes withheld.

Taxes may also be withheld by a foreign financial authority pursuant to the procedure laid down in foreign legislation.

We do not provide tax, financial, legal or regulatory advice. You must independently assess all the circumstances related to the taxation of your investments or their return, even if we have indicated specific tax aspects in the information provided to you.

Section II — Potential risks related to trading stocks

1. General risks

You need to take into consideration that investing in financial instruments exposes you to different risks which might decrease the value of your investment.A risk means the possibility of incurring a loss when investing.

The value of financial instruments may decrease or increase. There is, therefore, a risk that the return on financial instruments may be negative and result in a financial loss for you. The risk of loss may vary from one financial instrument to another. You should also keep in mind that past performance of financial instruments doesn’t guarantee future results and you may lose all of the invested amount.

You should, prior to undertaking a financial instrument transaction, make an independent assessment of the characteristics and the associated risks of the selected financial instrument in the perspective of your financial standing, experience with transactions in financial instruments, risk tolerance, investment objectives and the preferred investment horizon.

It is your responsibility to understand all the risks related to the relevant financial instruments, as you will bear the losses in the event your investment decreases in value.

When investing in financial instruments, you should:

  • Carefully examine the Order Handling & Execution Policy, which is available on our website, and assess your capacity to accept the terms set forth in the Client Agreement;
  • Carefully assess the transaction risks described in this document, especially the risks inherent in the financial instrument transactions you will be entering into;
  • Pay attention to the obligations attached to the applicable instruments and assess whether you are willing and able to comply; and
  • Carefully evaluate the information found in order confirmations received from us and independently keep track of the status of your orders.

The main general risks are as follows:

Risk typeDescription
Market RiskThe value of financial instruments changes over time, reflecting the supply and demand for them. In addition, a financial instrument’s market value based on data from a particular source may not necessarily reflect the actual value of that financial instrument.
Political RiskPolitical decisions made by governments and administrative bodies might negatively impact market participants. As a result, issuers might not be able to fulfill certain commitments or obligations, decreasing the value of the applicable financial instruments. Examples of such scenarios include trade embargoes, increases of interest rates or any other decisions impacting the social, economic and legal environment.
Regulatory Change RiskThere is a risk that the countries in whose capital markets you invest may experience an adverse change in regulations, including a change in tax regulations or any type of restriction on capital flows with foreign countries, which may adversely affect both the liquidity and the value of investments in the capital markets.
Currency RiskUnfavourable currency exchange rate fluctuations might lead to lower returns or losses.
Market RiskYou might suffer losses if the market you have investments in is underperforming. The underperformance could be related to an insecure macro- or micro- economic environment, instability on stock or crypto exchanges or poor financial returns in relevant countries, regions or industries.
Liquidity RiskInsufficient market liquidity might hinder your ability to sell or buy financial instruments at a price favorable to you. As a result you might receive smaller returns or bear losses on your investments.
Price RiskYou may incur a loss due to unfavorable fluctuations in prices of your investments.
System or Operational RiskThere can be a risk of loss in the event of inadequacy or malfunctioning of a company’s internal processes or systems or malpractice by a company’s employees.
Issuer RiskIf the issuer of a financial instrument suffers financial or liquidity difficulties, underperforms or faces any other challenges of a similar nature, there could be a negative impact on the financial instrument or the issuer’s commitment or obligations towards its investors.
Information RiskIt may be impossible for you to obtain adequate and correct information about all financial instruments, or obtaining such information could be challenging. On such occasions, it may be impossible for you to make appropriate decisions with respect to your investments.
Credit RiskThere is a risk that the issuer of a financial instrument or a counterparty may default on its obligations.
Inflation RiskThere is a risk that the real return on an investment will be lower than expected, meaning that the purchasing power of any proceeds realized at the time of withdrawal (cashing in) will be lower than expected.

2. Extended Trading Hours

We allow you to buy and sell eligible US stocks outside the core regular trading hours, which generally takes place between 9:30 and 16:00 Eastern Time. You could be subject to new risks or be exposed to the above-mentioned risks to a bigger extent should you engage in 'extended trading hours' of US stocks. Extended trading hours in this context can occur overnight and over weekends.

You should be aware of the most important risks:

Risk typeDescription
Lower LiquidityTrading of the stocks during extended market hours involves a smaller group of market participants, which may result in a lower number of market and marketable orders in those stocks compared to regular trading hours. This could lead to difficulties in buying or selling US stocks at your preferred price.
News ReleaseIssuers often publish important news outside regular trading hours to limit the news impact on the price of their financial instruments. Such announcements may occur during extended market hours and cause rapid price movements, which may lead to losses for you.
Higher VolatilityThe fluctuating changes in the price of financial instruments is known as volatility. Volatility in the stocks during extended market hours is generally higher, which could result in partially executed orders and exposure to unfavorable prices.
Wider SpreadsHigher volatility coupled with lower liquidity could cause an increase in the difference between the sell and buy price (the 'spread') for the stocks, which could affect the profitability of your trades and lead to larger losses.
Price GappingThe price of the stock may experience sudden changes without any trades taking place in between, known as 'price gapping.' This could occur due to unexpected news, events, or unusual trading activities, and could result in losses if you trade when a stock is at an unfavourable price.
Unlinked MarketsThe extended market hours trading systems are not interconnected, meaning that the price of a financial instrument displayed on one system may differ from the price of the same financial instrument on another system operating at the same time. This difference in prices may cause you to trade at a worse price than you intended during extended market hours trading.
Uncertain PricesThe prices of some stocks traded during extended market hours trading may not reflect the prices of those stocks during regular trading hours, including at the end of the regular trading session or upon the opening of regular trading the next business day.

3. Fractional shares

Fractional shares cannot be traded on public exchanges and are illiquid and unrecognised outside our trading platform. You can only liquidate them when they are sold through us and they cannot be transferred to another broker unless they are sold.

We will comply in all respects with ‘best execution’ on all orders executed through Neverless in line with its regulatory requirements. This means that there is no distinction in execution quality between fractional and whole share orders. Any order greater than one share that includes a fractional share component may be executed in a mixed capacity by both third-party brokers and Neverless.

All fractional holdings will be rounded to eight decimal places. For all notional based orders, your transaction will never exceed the order amount. Rounding may also affect your ability to be credited for cash dividends, stock dividends and stock splits. For example, if you own 0.00000001 shares of stock that pays a one cent dividend per share, we will not credit your cash balance a fraction of a cent. In carrying out rounding, we will use reasonable endeavours to get as close as possible to your order, however, we shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered or incurred by you arising out of or in connection with such rounding, save to the extent directly attributable to our negligence, fraud, wilful default, breach of contract or breach of the Applicable Laws.

Whilst equities usually grant the right to vote at the issuers general meeting, voting whilst holding a fraction of a share is not possible.

Fractional shares are not transferable. If you close your Account or transfer your Account to another firm, the fractional shares held in your Account shall be liquidated. Similarly, Fractional shares cannot be put into certificate form and mailed. Liquidations of fractional shares may result in additional charges.

4. Trading outside a trading venue

When we act as a counterparty (principal) to your transactions we execute your orders against our proprietary capital and outside a trading venue, which is called over-the-counter (‘OTC’) trading. When we transmit your order to a broker, the broker might also execute the transmitted orders OTC or via an intermediary.

As such, trading OTC comes with the below inherent risks:

Risk typeDescription
Lower LiquidityLiquidity risk refers to how quickly a financial instrument can be bought or sold in the market without affecting its price. Instruments traded OTC may face lower liquidity compared to those traded on established trading venues. This can result in difficulty finding a buyer or seller without experiencing significant price changes, potentially leading to greater losses.
Higher VolatilityVolatility measures the frequency and extent with which the price of a financial instrument fluctuates. Financial instruments traded OTC are often exposed to higher volatility due to less regulatory oversight, fewer market participants, and lower liquidity. High volatility increases the risk of unexpected losses.
Counterparty RiskWhen placing orders for financial instruments traded OTC, you are reliant on the creditworthiness and performance of the counterparty (the other party involved in the transaction) rather than a trading venue. There is a risk that the counterparty may fail to fulfill its obligations, either by defaulting on a payment or failing to deliver the financial instrument as agreed.
Information AsymmetryFinancial instruments traded OTC may lack transparency compared to financial instruments listed on trading venues, which may lead to information asymmetry between market participants. This imbalance in information can result in one party having an advantage over the other, increasing the risk of unfavourable trade executions or being exposed to misleading or incomplete information.

Section III — Potential risks related to safekeeping and custody

1. Custody framework

We are taking actions required by the laws of the Republic of Latvia to ensure the safeguarding of your financial instruments. Shall securities of foreign issuers owned by you be held in foreign custody, we are ensuring the applicable local laws provide you with sufficient protection in respect of safeguarding of your securities. This is to ensure that your securities held in our omnibus account with the foreign custodian ('the custodian') are clearly separated from the custodian's personal assets to avoid possible losses in the case of the custodian's bankruptcy, asset seizure or similar events. We are not carrying out an independent legal investigation on the foreign country's safekeeping regulation, but request the custodian to provide legally binding questionnaires in respect of the regulations and internal controls they are obliged to adhere to.
We are undertaking measures to safeguard your beneficial ownership rights when holding your financial instruments.
Your financial instruments issued by issuers registered in foreign countries may be held in custody by other financial instrument custodians. When choosing another financial instrument custodian, we act with all due professionalism and care. On your request, we can provide information on the custodian of your financial instruments.
Financial instruments owned by you are safekept in an omnibus account with a third-party broker, i.e. account opened by Neverless, although indicating that the beneficial owner of the safekept financial instruments is you. You will be able to exercise all relevant rights in respect of your financial instruments only through us.
Client funds are segregated from our own funds and held on an account opened with an eligible third party. An ‘eligible third party’ means a central bank, an authorised credit institution, a bank authorised in a third country, or a qualifying money market fund. The account in which your money is held is known as a ‘Client money account’. Your funds will be pooled with those of our other Clients in the ‘Client money account’.
Whilst we have exercised all due care, skill and diligence in selecting and appointing the eligible third party, we are not responsible for any losses you may suffer as a result of any action that the eligible third party takes or fails to take in connection with client funds.

2. General risks

You should be aware that there are risks in respect of safekeeping your assets.

RiskDescription
Operational RiskYou may suffer losses in case the custodian faces technical failures in their respective systems.
Custodian RiskAlthough legally required to segregate clients’ assets from the custodian’s own assets, in the event of bankruptcy of the custodian, you might irrecoverably lose your investment where there is a failure of sufficient segregation. Additionally, funds in client money accounts are protected against the custodian’s creditors but may not be protected against a credit institution’s creditors in the event of its insolvency.
Legal RiskIn case of an unfavourable legislative change, you might be subject to a loss.
Information RiskAs we rely in some cases on third parties, you might not always have full access to information regarding your financial instruments on demand.

3. Qualifying Money Market Funds

Instead of a credit institution, Neverless may place some or all of your money into a qualifying money market fund (‘QMMF’) on your behalf.

QMMFs are money market funds, managed by a fund manager, that are typically required to maintain a low-risk strategy by investing in financial instruments such as government bonds. QMMFs are generally subject to higher regulatory scrutiny and must meet higher quality standards than other money market funds. Neverless also carefully selects only highly regulated QMMFs and regularly monitors their performance. Nevertheless, as with any investment, there are certain risks that apply:

RiskDescription
Credit RiskIf the QMMF in which your money is deposited becomes insolvent, you may lose (a part of) your money.
Custodian RiskAlthough legally required to segregate clients’ assets from the custodian’s own assets, in the event of bankruptcy of the custodian, you might irrecoverably lose your investment where there is a failure of sufficient segregation. Additionally, funds in client money accounts are protected against the custodian’s creditors but may not be protected against a credit institution’s creditors in the event of its insolvency.
Legal RiskIn case of an unfavourable legislative change, you might be subject to a loss.
Information RiskAs we rely in some cases on third parties, you might not always have full access to information regarding your financial instruments on demand.

4. Use of your financial instruments

To offer instant funding and settlement of your Prime account, we may use your financial instruments to secure margin facility for the purpose of hedging and executing your orders when we deal on our own account. We also may use your assets to meet the settlement obligations to other clients who engage in short-selling. These come with the following risks:

RiskDescription
Operational RiskIf we fail to maintain sufficient margin in the omnibus account held with our sub-custodian because of market movements, valuation errors, settlement delays, or other operational errors, the third party may dispose of your assets and subject you to a loss.
Credit RiskThere is a risk when a counterparty — in this case, the client who short-sells your financial instruments — becomes insolvent. We manage this risk by requiring short-sellers to maintain collateral that is greater than the value of the short-sold shares and timely liquidating their portfolios otherwise to recover your instruments.
Loss of certain shareholder rightsWhile your financial instruments are being used to cover the short sale of another client, you will not be able to exercise your shareholder rights. You will still receive any dividends that are paid while your securities are on loan and should be able to sell your instruments as normal.
Delayed settlementA financial instrument, while being used for other client accounts, may take time to be recalled and delay the settlement of your sales. To minimise this risk and ensure instant processing of your sell orders, we may re-allocate the use to another Neverless client or find the instruments from the open markets.
