4. Role of WiseAlpha

4.1 General

The Platform is operated by us to offer prospective investors the opportunity to acquire Fractional Bonds and other WiseAlpha Products.

4.2 Fractional Bonds

WiseAlpha plc will purchase the Investments to which Fractional Bonds are linked and engage in the monitoring of the performance and agreement compliance in relating to the Investments. Should you purchase any Fractional Bonds, you will be deemed to have understood and agreed that the Fractional Bonds are WiseAlpha plc’s obligations, as set out in the Deed Poll and the Terms and Conditions of the Fractional Bonds and in no circumstances will a User establish any contractual or other relationship with an Obligor. We may provide a risk band classification for each Investment according to our proprietary credit screening process which Investors may use as an informative tool in relation to their purchase of Fractional Bonds referencing an Investment. Investors must however form their own opinion regarding, and undertake their own research, analysis and assessment of, us, the relevant Fractional Bond(s) and the merits of each Investment which a Fractional Bond reflects and, where appropriate, seek its own independent financial advice. We accept no responsibility and disclaim all liability for any information about an Obligor made available to prospective investors through the WiseAlpha platform or in respect of risk band classifications of Investments. We may from time to time at the end of each month, but accept no obligation to, update or amend at any time an Obligor’s information or the risk band classification.

4.3 Other WiseAlpha Products

Other WiseAlpha Products may be made available on the Service. Should you purchase any such WiseAlpha Products, you will be deemed to have understood and agreed that these products will be made available and sold subject to such terms and conditions as may be posted on the Platform in relation to them.
