C. Risk of Loss
1. Generally
Investing in securities involves a significant risk of loss. RC’s investment recommendations are
subject to various market, currency, economic, political and business risks, and such investment
decisions may not always be profitable. Clients should be aware that there may be a loss or
depreciation to the value of the client’s account, which clients should be prepared to bear. There
can be no assurance that the client’s investment objectives will be obtained and no inference to
the contrary should be made.
The market value of stocks will generally fluctuate with market conditions, and small-stock
prices generally will fluctuate more than large-stock prices. Stocks of mid-capitalization
companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the
stocks of larger, more established companies. Stocks tend to fluctuate over the short term as a
result of factors affecting the individual companies, industries or the securities market as a
whole. Past performance of investments is no guarantee of future results.
The market value of bonds will generally fluctuate inversely with interest rates and other market
conditions prior to maturity and will equal par value at maturity. Interest rates for bonds may be
fixed at the time of issuance, and payment of principal and interest may be guaranteed by the
issuer and, in the case of U.S. Treasury obligations, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
Treasury. The market value of Treasury bonds will generally fluctuate more than Treasury bills,
since Treasury bonds have longer maturities.
2. Risks Involved in Particular Types of Securities Recommended by RC
The primary risks involved in the securities recommended by RC may include, among others:
• Stock market risk, which is the chance that stock prices overall will decline. Stock
markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of falling prices.
Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities.
• Issuer risk, which is the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons directly
related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced
demand for the issuer's goods or services.
• Non-diversification risk, which is the risk of focusing investments in a small number of
issuers, industries or foreign currencies, including being more susceptible to risks
associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a more
diversified portfolio might be.
• Interest rate risk, which is the chance that bond prices overall will decline because of
rising interest rates. Similarly, the income from bonds or other debt instruments may
decline because of falling interest rates.
• Credit risk, which is the chance that a bond issuer will fail to pay interest and principal in
a timely manner, or that negative perceptions
of the issuer’s ability to make such
payments will cause the price of that bond to decline.
• Smaller company risk, which is the risk that the value of securities issued by a smaller
company may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably as compared to more
widely held securities. Investments in smaller companies are subject to greater levels of
credit, market and issuer risk.
• Real estate risk, which is the risk that investments in real estate and real estate-linked
securities will subject the portfolio to risks similar to those associated with direct
ownership of real estate, including losses from casualty or condemnation, and changes in
local and general economic conditions, supply and demand, interest rates, zoning laws,
regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses.
• Options risk, which is the risk that options may be subject to greater fluctuations in value
than an investment in the underlying securities. Options and other derivatives may be
subject to counterparty risk and may also be illiquid and more difficult to value.
Purchasing and writing put and call options are highly specialized activities and entail
greater than ordinary investment risks.
• Management risk, which is the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses
applied by an investment manager will produce the desired results and that legislative,
regulatory, or tax developments may affect the investment techniques available to the
investment manager.
• Private Placements carry a substantial risk as they are subject to less regulation than are
publicly offered securities, the market to resell these assets under applicable securities
laws may be illiquid, due to restrictions, and liquidation may be taken at a substantial
discount to the underlying value or result in the entire loss of the value of such assets.
There is no guarantee that a client’s investment objectives will be achieved.
Clients are advised that they should only commit assets for management that can be invested for
the long term, that volatility from investing can occur, and that all investing is subject to risk and
consequently, the value of the client’s account may at anytime be worth more or less than the
amount invested.
