Ever Financial AD does not offer its clients trading in financial instruments other than CFDs in a market other than the OTC market.

Ever Financial AD offers its clients the following types of CFDs:

-> CFDs on securities and exchange-traded funds;

-> CFDs on indices;

-> CFDs on futures;

-> CFDs on currency pairs and precious metals;

-> CFDs on options traded.

The main features of CFDs offered by Ever Financial AD are:

-> the creator and distributor of CFDs offered for trading by Ever Financial AD is the investment intermediary itself;

-> The CFD offered for trading by Ever Financial AD is not a transferable security and is not held in a depositary institution but in an analytical account with the investment intermediary;

-> neither party acquires the CFD itself nor the underlying asset on which it is based;

-> neither party is obliged to buy, sell, deliver or receive the respective CFD’s underlying asset;

-> the rights and obligations of each of the parties to the CFD are solely to exercise or receive payments under the submitted order, as the results of the execution of the orders are reflected in its positions in assets and/or funds accordingly;

-> transactions in CFDs are not subject to centralized clearing.

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Detailed information about the financial instruments offered for trading by the investment intermediary can be found in Information on Financial Instruments That are Subject of the Investment Services Provided by Ever Financial AD and Associated Risks, which is available to clients in the offices of Ever Financial AD as well as on its website  www.ever.bg, www.rs-prime.com

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Information about each financial instrument offered by Ever Financial AD is available and can be freely accessed on the intermediary’s web site (www.ever.bg, www.rs-prime.com).

11. Ever Financial AD warns that trading in financial instruments, including CFDs, poses significant risks and is not suitable for each investor. Trading in financial markets is not suitable for investors seeking a stable income, as the income from such activity is volatile and uncertain.

The financial instruments offered by Ever Financial AD – CFDs – are complex financial instruments and, accordingly, their risk component is composite and complex, therefore the risk of loss of the funds invested by the client is significant.

In trading in financial instruments, including CFDs, there is no guarantee that the initially invested amount will not be lost and there is almost never a guarantee that the expected return will be realized. The losses may exceed the amounts of deposited funds, but they will be fully consistent with the client’s performance and their investment behavior.

Clients should take into account that the profitability of CFD trading is also influenced by the fees and commissions that the investment intermediary charges as specified in the Tariff of Interest Rates, Fees and Commissions of Ever Financial AD and from other expenses related to that type of derivative instruments.

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Information on fees, commissions and other potential costs of CFD trading is available in the current Tariff and is also published and freely available on the web site of Ever Financial AD (www.ever.bg, www.rs-prime.com).

Clients should also bear in mind that financial markets are highly volatile, i.e. they are characterized by price volatility and quotations of financial instruments. The prices and quotations of CFDs are directly dependent on the price of the respective underlying asset, which is influenced by many and various factors, including: changes in the supply and demand ratio; world trade; tax, monetary, regulatory and foreign policy of the parties; important economic and political news; changes in interest rates of central banks; transactions of central banks and major players; currency depreciation; actual presentation of business entities in their respective segment; market players’ anticipations and expectations, as well as many other factors.

The types of CFDs offered by Ever Financial AD do not contain a mechanism for protection against market dynamics, which means that the client may lose all or part of their investment.

The execution venues may impose price restrictions on the financial instruments traded on them, assets that are underlying for the CFDs offered by Ever Financial AD, as well as suspend trading in individual instruments. Ever Financial AD warns its clients that in specific cases the client may assume financial and other additional obligations as a result of transactions in financial instruments, including contingent liabilities in addition to the costs of acquiring CFD.

It should be taken into account that trading against a guarantee amount (margin), while allowing profit to be made on the whole open position, is a high risk form of investment and can also lead to significant losses or complete loss of invested client funds.

Ever Financial AD warns that using leverage can multiply both clients’ profits and losses, and relatively small market movements can have a large effect on client positions. As a result, the deposited funds constituting a guarantee on open positions can be completely exhausted.

The client should take into account that regardless of the specific financial instrument, trading against a guarantee amount provided is higher risk than trading against paying the full value of the financial instrument.

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Detailed information about the financial instruments offered for trading by the investment intermediary can be found in Information on Financial Instruments That are Subject of the Investment Services Provided by Ever Financial AD and Associated Risks, which is available to clients in the offices of Ever Financial AD as well as on its website (www.ever.bg , www.rs-prime.com).

12. In the process of opening a trading account, Ever Financial AD assesses whether the service requested by the client is suitable for them. The assessment is made on the basis of the information provided by the client regarding their knowledge and experience in trading on financial markets.

Notwithstanding the evaluation of Ever Financial AD, the client should make for themselves a careful assessment of whether the services offered by Ever Financial AD are suitable for them and whether to use them or not.

In the event that the assessment of Ever Financial AD shows that the requested service is not suitable for the client, the investment intermediary shall inform the client and warn them about the risks thereof.

The decision to use this service, although it is considered unsuitable for them, is up to the client and they explicitly state it to the intermediary.

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Ever Financial AD warns that if, despite the intermediary’s warning, the client determines that they will use a service that is deemed unsuitable for the client, the client, prior to conducting actual trading that would result in financial losses for them,  should obtain  some experience in this type of trading through a demo account, and familiarize themselves  with the specifics of trading against a guarantee amount (margin trading) in general, including through the training materials available on the website of Ever Financial AD (www.ever.bg, www.rs-prime.com).

13. With regard to the trading of the above-mentioned CFDs, which is carried out on an OTC market, Ever Financial AD is the only execution venue of the orders and acts as a principal on each transaction (rather than an agent or broker). In practice, the client’s orders are executed through the electronic platform for trading in financial instruments offered by the investment intermediary, at the prices quoted by the investment intermediary, and on each transaction with the client Ever Financial AD is a counterparty. All orders of clients for trading in CFDs are executed against the own liquidity of Ever Financial AD.

Ever Financial AD warns its clients in advance that their CFD trading orders will be executed outside the trading venue (regulated market, multilateral trading system and organized trading system). Ever Financial AD warns that any specific instructions from the client may prevent the investment intermediary from taking the measures provided for and applied to the Policy for Execution Clients’ Orders applicable to the agreements for trading in CFDs of Ever Financial AD to obtain the best possible results in the execution of those orders with respect to the elements covered by these instructions.

Ever Financial AD does not apply different charges depending on the place of execution of the client’s orders, as it acts as the only place for execution of those orders.

Ever Financial AD acts as the sole venue for executing the orders of its clients, and therefore does not receive payments or incentives from third parties (which are themselves venues for execution) in connection with the execution of those orders. Ever Financial AD does not receive any consideration, discount or non-monetary benefit for transferring a client’s order to a specific trading venue, a place for executing orders, respectively.

Ever Financial AD only charges its clients the fees specified in its Tariff of Interest Rates, Fees and Commissions, and these fees do not vary depending on the client or the execution venue.

Ever Financial AD acts as a counterparty to all transactions with clients, therefore it does not charge receivables from two or more participants in a transaction in accordance with Article 24, Paragraph 9 of MiFID II, it does not receive non-monetary benefits as an intermediary, and the value of all monetary benefits it receives as an intermediary is specified in the Tariff of Interest Rates, Fees and Commissions of Ever Financial AD.

Ever Financial AD promptly, honestly and accurately executes the received client orders, including in the order of their receipt. Ever Financial AD adheres to the following conditions when executing client orders:

-> It executes comparable in other respects orders of clients consistently and immediately, unless this is impracticable due to the characteristics of the order or prevailing market conditions or if the interests of the client require otherwise;

-> It informs the retail client of any significant difficulty related to the proper execution of the orders as soon as they become aware of the difficulty.

Ever Financial AD does not misuse the information related to pending client orders and takes all reasonable steps to prevent the misuse of such information by any of its respective persons.

When executing a client’s order, Ever Financial AD takes all sufficient steps to obtain the best possible result for the client, taking into account the price; the costs; the speed of execution of the order; the likelihood of execution and settlement (if, in view of the type and nature of the transaction, it is carried out); size; the nature and all other circumstances relating to the execution of the order.

In executing an order submitted by a retail client, the best possible result is determined by the total value of the transaction, including the price of the financial instrument and the costs associated with the execution, which include all costs directly related to the execution of the order, including execution venue fees, clearing and settlement fees (if any) and other fees and charges paid to third parties involved in executing the order, if any.

Upon specific instructions from the client, Ever Financial AD executes the order by following these instructions. All special instructions of the client derogate from the rules for achieving the best result set out in the Policy for Execution Clients’ Orders applicable to agreements for trading in CFDs of Ever Financial AD.

When executing clients’ orders, Ever Financial AD takes into account the following criteria in determining the relative importance of the factors mentioned above:

-> client’s characteristics, including categorization of the client as retail or professional;

-> characteristics of the client’s order;

-> characteristics of the financial instruments that are the subject of that order.

(amended with decision of the Board of directors from 09.10.2020, 18.02.2022 and from 15.02.2024) Information on the execution of client orders is available in the Policy for Execution Clients’ Orders applicable to agreements for trading in CFDs of Ever Financial AD, which is available and can be freely accessed on the website of Ever Financial AD (www.ever.bg, www.rs-prime.com).
