Structured Investment Deposit (SID) - Dual Currency Deposit

How it works...

  • A short tenor deposit linked to your chosen cross currency pair.
  • Principal and high interest will be repaid in either the deposit or linked currency, determined by comparing the exchange rate upon fixing with the pre-set conversion rate.

Example...

Deposit currency New Zealand dollar (NZD)
Linked currency EURO dollar
Deposit period 1 month
Linked exchange rate NZD/EUR
Spot exchange rate NZD1 = EUR1.8189
Conversion rate NZD1 = EUR1.8139
Interest rate 14.96%p.a.
Fixing date and fixing time 2 Hong Kong, Target & Wellington business days before maturity date, 2pm (Hong Kong time)
Upon maturity
  1. If NZD / EUR at the fixing time on the fixing date is at or below 1.8139, the principal and interest would be paid in NZD.
  2. If NZD / EUR at the fixing time on the fixing date is above 1.8139, the principal and interest would be converted to EUR at the conversion rate (1.8139) and paid in EUR.
