## Settlement and currency risk

Funding a wallet, executing a trade and settling that trade are separate steps. Exchange settlement follows the applicable market cycle; cash and withdrawal availability can differ.

A USD wallet or USD account reporting does not remove the currency risk of investments priced in a local currency. Exchange-rate movements can increase or reduce the USD value of holdings and dividends. Conversion, fees and availability follow the applicable account and market terms.
