■ the basis for any contract or commitment;
■ a platform for entering into contracts remotely;
■ a source of financial, legal or tax advice.

The Site also provides financial/economic information and analysis intended exclusively for organizations / companies based in Switzerland and adult natural persons domiciled in Switzerland as per Art. 23 of the Swiss Civil Code (CC) who fit the definition of qualified investors as per Art. 10 (par. 3, 3bis), and more precisely: (i) financial intermediaries subject to supervision; (ii) insurance institutions subject to supervision; (iii) public-law agencies and social security institutions with a professional treasury; (iv) enterprises with a professional treasury; (v) wealthy individuals who have stated in writing that they wish to be regarded as qualified investors, (vi) investors who have entered into a written asset management contract, provided they have not declared in writing that they do not wish to be considered as such.

A user who intends to access the “Funds” section must carefully read and expressly agree to this disclaimer, thus fulfilling the conditions of access set out above. Compliance with the conditions of access is of fundamental importance, because the collective investment schemes mentioned on the Site (“Funds” section) are authorized for distribution in Switzerland by Lapis, which holds an authorization as distributor exclusively for Switzerland.
Investors who do not satisfy the conditions of access may not access the “Funds” section of the Site. In particular, access to the “Funds” section is not permitted to persons domiciled in the USA or who are USA citizens, nor to any person who, by virtue of applicable foreign legislation, is not authorized to access / receive content relating to the above-mentioned investment funds.
The funds are managed on the basis of a discretionary asset management mandate by third party.

Investors who fulfil the conditions of access to the Site must nevertheless check whether they are subject to any further constraints, obligations or restrictions under foreign (as opposed to Swiss) legislation relating to the offer, subscription, purchase, possession or sale of collective investment schemes, for example in relation to tax or inheritance law. Investors who are thinking of subscribing to a fund should carefully read the latest prospectus, offer document or other official information, and consult the fund’s most recent report. The prospectus, offer document and other official items of information are available from the funds’ representative in Switzerland (GAM Luxembourg SA) or may be requested directly from Lapis.
Independently of qualified investor status, investment in a particular fund may not be appropriate for all investors. Before making an investment or taking financial decisions, we recommend that you seek personal advice from a specialized financial advisor.
