• A time deposit account is relatively safe: the capital is repaid by the issuing bank at the predetermined maturity date. If the bank goes bankrupt or is unable to repay your capital, the capital of your term investment will still be covered by the deposit guarantee scheme for an amount of up to 100.000 euros per person and per bank.
  
• Exchange rate risk.

The income generated is subject to Belgian withholding tax of (currently) 30% on the gross amount of the interest. Some investors may qualify for an exemption if they meet certain criteria. The tax treatment information applies to individual investors subject to Belgian personal income tax. The tax treatment will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future.

• In case of the financial institution's bankruptcy or risk of bankruptcy, the saver runs the risk of losing their savings or may be subject to a reduction/conversion into shares (bail-in) of the amount of the claim they have against the financial institution for the sum above 100 000 euros that is covered under the deposit guarantee.
• You can subscribe to a time deposit account at your bank at any time. If you want to sell your time deposit accounts before maturity, your bank may buy them back (please note that it is not obliged to do so). The value you then get, depends on the market's interest rates and the costs charged by the bank. So it is by no means certain that you will recover your initial capital.
