The investments and strategies discussed in the Website may not be suitable for all investors and are not obligations of Thelelantos or its affiliates or guaranteed by Thelelantos or its affiliates. Thelelantos makes no representations that the contents are appropriate for use in all locations, or that the transactions, securities, products, instruments, or services discussed on this site are available or appropriate for sale or use in all jurisdictions or countries, or by all investors or counterparties.

All investments involve risk and may lose value. The value of your investment can go down depending upon market conditions. Fixed income investments are subject to risk including interest rate, credit, market and issuer risk. Currency exchange rates may cause the value of an investment to go up or down. Alternative strategies involve higher risks than traditional investments, may not be tax efficient, and have higher fees than traditional investments; they may also be highly leveraged and engage in speculative investment techniques, which can magnify the potential for investment loss or gain. Before acquiring the shares of any investment fund by purchase or exchange, it is your responsibility to read the fund's prospectus or offering materials.

Fund and advisor disclosures

Investments in a Thelelantos product or client account are not bank deposits and are not insured or guaranteed by Thelelantos or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, any other government agency or any bank. Although a money market fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. Please carefully consider a fund's investment objective, risks, charges and expenses before investing. For this and other information, call or write to BlackRock for a free prospectus or view one online. Read it carefully before you invest or send money.
