Type of financial service offered:
MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA offers the following financial services:
Wealth management
Within the framework of a wealth management mandate, the client delegates the discretionary management of his assets to MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA in exchange for a fee. MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA thus makes investment decisions in compliance with the investment strategy agreed with the client (his “Investment Profile”), which is determined on the basis of his risk profile. MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA verifies that the investment strategy is appropriate to the client’s risk profile (suitability test).

Global investment advice
When MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA provides a global advice service, in exchange for a fee, the investment decision is made by the client himself. MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA only makes investment recommendations relating to the acquisition or sale of financial instruments, leaving the client the choice as to whether or not to follow that recommendation. The advice provided is global, in that it takes account of the whole of the client’s portfolio and his allocation of assets, in order to define an investment strategy (Investment Profile) adapted to the client’s risk profile.
Within the framework of the investment advice, MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA offers two separate mandates: an advice mandate with transmission of the client’s instructions by MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA, and an advice mandate without transmission of instructions, in which case the client must himself communicate his investment instructions to his custodian bank.

 

Information about the risks:
Every financial instrument comprises risks and can generate losses.
The general risks relative to financial instruments are detailed in the brochure of the Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) “Risks Involved in Trading Financial Instruments”, which can be downloaded free from the website of the Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) (https://www.swissbanking.ch/fr/telechargements). The client can also request a copy from MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA.
The risks specific to the wealth management service offered by MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA (for example, risks linked to the investment strategy agreed with the client) are indicated in the mandate submitted to the client and are given verbally to the client by the advisor before the client chooses an investment strategy (the Investment Profile). The same applies for the risks resulting from the global investment advice service.
The MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA advisor is available to the client for any additional information about the investment strategy and about any financial instrument that may be used.

 

Information about rates:
The rates for the wealth management and investment advice services provided by MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA are mentioned in the mandates.

 

Economic ties with third parties concerning the financial services offered:
MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA may hold economic ties with third parties enabling it to obtain advantages (in the form of fees), which could give rise to a conflict of interest in respect of the client in relation with the financial services provided by MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA.
These advantages result from agreements with third parties (such as banks or representatives of financial instruments) within the framework of which MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA may receive a percentage of the commissions deducted by these third parties. This is particularly the case of the undertakings for collective investment of the Tailor Capital group, whose management company, Tailor Asset Management, is economically affiliated to MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA and to one of its principal shareholders.
The parameters for calculation and the range of the fees that MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA may receive are duly declared to the client in the wealth management or investment advice mandate, so as to allow the client to validly waive requesting the transfer of these fees in its favour.
In any case, MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA has taken adequate organisational measures to avoid any disadvantage for its clients.

The market offering taken into consideration by MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA when selecting financial instruments is composed partly of third party financial instruments and partly of financial instruments of the Tailor Capital group (undertakings for collective investment) with which MAG ASSET MANAGEMENT SA has a relationship of business introducer.
