Protections you will lose as a Professional Client
Becoming a Pro Client means you lose the rights and regulatory protections afforded to Retail Clients under Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC).
These losses include but are not limited to:
Not receiving certain disclosure and warnings about the Firm, its services, and remuneration, offered with respect to Retail Clients.
You will not receive updates to our Product Disclosure Statement, Financial Services Guide or any other relevant legal documentation that the Firm is ordinarily required to provide a Retail Client.
No negative balance protection, with Trade Nation having the ability to demand payment in full of any margin call, debt or loss that has accrued on the account.
No access to our internal dispute resolution procedure and the external dispute resolution scheme, Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA).
Lower leverage and margin restrictions that would not be in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Product Intervention Order—Contracts for Difference) Instrument 2020/986.
You will no longer have access to trade US stocks.
